Politicians and diapers have one thing in common. They should both be
changed regularly, and for the same reason.

it. if you haven't, its in the last pic of the 2nd URL below. click on it
and enlarge it and you can see the watercress and a mosquito dunk in it.

what i'm asking is, would this be considered a veggie filter of sorts? if
not what would you call it? now be nice! LOL

Hey Mad,
If water is flowing into and out of it and it contains
vegetation - sure, call it a veggie filter ;-)


My proposed ponder's dictionary entry:

Veggie filter: A biological filter using vegetation as growth medium,
and requiring sunlight to vegetation to grow.
