1 yes definitly even without the wall you can get up a half in or so
higher ( thats about what mine does ) and im only restreicting with rock
that are around 1/4 in apart

2 ok i give I cant comprhend what you are doing here ;-) back from
where? if you mean back from the VF it should be a tad higer in the hi
pond just from the pump output the water will always rut to the lower
direction or to the VF and then to the main pond

I guess it's hard to picture.

My VF is cut into a hill. So one end currently has about 10-12 inches of
vertical liner showing, and the other end (where the inflow pipe is) has
about 6 inches showing. I plan to build a wall of sandbags between them and
pump from the low end up to the high end. I then plan to let the water flow
from the high end through the current outflow pipe (the one that the pump is
currently pumping to) back to the main pond.
