I tried hunting up some info on Peaktop and all I could find were stuff for small fountains. Hopefully it will keep working for ya, and hopefully it's big enough to drive your pond. Channel cats are kinda hard to kill, was the filter just out for a really long time or did something else kill 'em off?

Oh. Stinky. Ya, a few days with no moving water isn't too good for near anything.

Hopefully it won't barf on ya again.

I have found that it is good every once in a while to take your filters, powerheads, what ever you have, and take them apart like that and clean them up some. Especially the impeller (the magnet piece with the blades that move the water), pull that out of the socket that it sits in, clean the goop off of it, then use a small round brush to get down inside the socket, there is always gunk inside there.
