Hi Lori
Yes this still can be a wonderful resource for pond info. Unfortunately,
because of the many posts that don't relate to ponds anymore, many of the
knowledgeable people don't seem to be around near as often. I know little
about pond construction and plumbing. About all I can suggest is if you go
submersible: I have a Laguna, which is quite economical but doesn't push
uphill very well. Becket is a power hog. Pondmaster has a very good
reputation. All the others and out of pond, someone else will have to help
you on. Hang on though. I suspect someone will 'stop by' sooner than
later.
Good luck!
