I would not attach the bog to pond, the tannins will turn the water
brown... especially with peat moss. The few people I know of that have done
a bog, set them up near but not connecting to the pond.

Are you using any filtration (other than the pond itself) water movement,
on the big pond? ~ jan



Interesting - I wondered about that. I could just use the overflow
from the bog into the stream only in severe rain circumstances - there
will be no other place for it to go. Thus the water would be
partially fresh plus go through the vegie filtration system I will
have.

I have no filtration right now. I have the 5000 gph pump just
circulating the water and a 3000 gph pump going up into where the bog
area will be and running down a small stream. I have pvc running from
the pond near the 5000 gph pump up to the bog area. It will
eventually be used to run the stream/waterfalls with the 5000 gph
pump. The 3000 gph pump I will then use it to circulate the water.
