Jebao 8000GPH pump

Greetings all, I am new to this forum. Happy that I have found you. So much information. I have a 3732 gallon 20foot wide, round, with a 2 foot deep ledge, falling off to 5 foot deep rubber lined pond with a skimmer filter, vortex biofilter/waterfalls and 10foot long stream. My biggest problem has been moving enough water. I have two pumps (one in the skimmer/filter {savio 2050gph}, another in the bottom of the pond {pondmaster 2400ghp}. I just cant turn over the pond fast enough, and of course keep fighting algae and green water. So for the last couple years I've been doing lots of $$$(expensive)$$ weekly water changes. So now I'm looking at a bigger pump. So..... has anyone had experiance with Jebao? I'm considering a JGP-30000, 600w, 8000gph submersible pump. And if so, is it true to its spec's? I'm also going to change my bio media to 'bio-balls'. Is this the way to go? And inject air into the bio-filter? And put a cover over my bio-filter/waterfalls to keep the sunlite out? And turn off my UV lite, to keep from killing my 'microb-lift' bacteria additives? I've been learning so much. I've kept freshwater fish in the house for years but have found out that 'outside' is a completely different animal. Its still winter here in New York, USA, but I want to get ready early this year and be ready to tackle the problems I had last year. Then I can enjoy my Koi.. instead of work, work, work..... Thank you, Kirby
