To add a fountain to a small pond, you can use a submersible fountain pump that can be placed at the bottom of the pond and connected to a fountain head or nozzle. The fountain can be adjusted for height and pattern to create a unique and attractive water feature

About 2 horsepower (the size of a fountain pump) is ideal for every acre of water. As a result, the 8400JF model is what we recommend for most ponds that are around an acre in size. The 4400JF would be suitable for a 1/2 acre pond, while the 3400JF would be more appropriate for a 1/4 acre pond.
