Default Vortex

The only pressurized vortex that I am familiar with is the Turbovortex. I
bought one, got two, used one and both are out of service. They are not
truly a vortex, use bioballs as a solids trap and have a backwash valve to
clean, but it doesn't do the job, so the balls have to be removed every week
or so and cleaned. I do not recommend, but if you want one, I have a new
one available.

I have a 4500 gallon pond with a bead filter and pump well below the level
of the pond (in my basement). I would like to add a vortex, but would

need
a pressurized one. Any experience or ideas out there?

Thanks,
Mark
