Hi
Sorry if I haven't posted here for a long time ,but I have been very busy with my other activities . It seems like this year the filter in my Sunterra 1250 GPH Pump clogs every day. This slows down my waterfall drastically . Then I have to rinse out the filter in the pump to get my pond flowing again.I didn't experience this the previous 2 years I have tried Algaefix,Barley Straw(just added about a week ago below my 2nd waterfall),and other additives . My pond is about 1000 gallons . This year I have added Lily Pads to the lower pond. They cover about half of the lower pond. Sorry,but I haven't taken any pics of my pond this year. My lower pond has about 30 Goldfish in it. Is there something else that I can buy that will help me with this problem? Should I put a 2nd barley straw below the upper waterfall. I thought about a UV Clarifier,but I really don't want to spend that type of money if I don't have to.
Sorry, I forgot to add that I also have a Bio- Filter that is located between my pump and my upper waterfall.
Here is a pic of my pond that I took a couple years ago. It still looks basically the same. Only I have planted more flowers around the pond
Thank you
Rick
