Hi all,
I'm new to this forum, and have been ponding on a small scale for 12 years now. Last year in September of 2008 I finally was able to install a 365 gallon pond with a attached skimmer/pre-filter in a 17 gallon tub that also contains the 700 gph water pump. The water is pumped into the base of the water fall, and the water fall has it's own independant water pump. The 27 gallon boi-filter is disconnected and put away for the winter.
With some trail and error, I have managed to tweek my filtration system to a point where I have a good sound balance in my pond. Of course the other part of this balance is due to the fish and water plants.
I hope to learn more about quality pond managment here at this forum.
Happy ponding,
