Those are cool wiers. No money for new equipment though. I have to use what I have, nothing else. I also have to be able to do it myself with my son, Doug (14) as Matt is on a permanent 5 pound weight restriction.
Doug has been great about digging the holes for the skimmer and filter in solid clay. Now they will be filling up with snow! We are expecting 2-4 inches today, grrrrrrrr
