Pond Water Pump

Posted by Pond Keeper

The set up I prefer is a bottom drain, attached by a hose to an external pump, which pulls pond water off the bottom of the pond and pumps it into a veggie filter, from where it trickles back into the pond. Do not skimp on a pump, either. It is better to have one too big, than too small. And be sure to get a pond pump, not a sump pump or some other type. Pond pumps are sealed, whereas other types can leak oil, etc., back into your pond (bad for your fish and plants – could even kill them).

Posted by Pond Keeper

ok lets forget the fish bit, how about a wildlife pond for insects, frogs, plants etc if so anybody got details, thanks

you can but you will end up with a stagnate algae pit
