No, I have a former pool filter that has been gutted of all its parts,
retrofitted with a basket strainer in the bottom, filled half-full with
medium-coarse gravel, and a pump mounted in the void above the gravel and
connected to a kevlar plate which is bolted to the top of the filter housing and
the top opening. The pump outlet and electricaly is fitted through this plate.
The entire unit is submerged into the pond, beneath the waterfall at one end.
When the pump is on, it draws water into the filter from the bottom of the
filter, which travels through the basket strainer and the gravel, then is pumped
back out over the waterfall and into the pond. The intake of the filter is
connected to a 6 feet long hose which is connected to a pre-filter which is
situated right in the middle of the bottom of the pond.

Glad it works so well for you.
