According to the dimensions you gave your pond will be 1,246 gallons (5,663 litres).
That Badu Top 6 pump is going to be well over spec with a flow of 2,200gph turning your pond over nearly twice an hour (as opposed to once every 2 hours). This will effect the efficiency of your filtration system.
If you intend to share the pump with the skimmer line as well the flow will be reduced but still not enough in my opinion. Also that pump is unnecessarily expensive to run at 250 watts.
The Hydroclean is useful for removing fines but will need constant cleaning. It will be handy to have a spare set of discs and a stand for power washing down the dirty ones.
I'm sure others here will be able to confirm or debate this as well?
Let's see what they say!
