Overkill?
Is a 3400GPH pump for a 100G pond too much? I know stupid question but I want a good waterfall. (you can stop laughing now)

I think it would work great! No, really. I've actually seen something like this right up the road from me. At a little place called Water Country USA
 Oh wait...you said a waterfall, not a water slide.

Maybe you could make your pond into a fast running stream??

Well, that was amusing. A little too powerful, I downgraded to a 1100GPH. This should work good. Old faithful was pretty much right! I think I need some of that waterfall foam stuff, does that actually work??
