I'm thinking about making my own biofilter for my 450 gallon pond.
Would a 5 gallon bucket be large enough? I only have a small yard and
the pond takes up most of the area. I would hate to have a big 50
gallon container sitting in the yard next to my pond.
Also what filter media should I use that would be least expensive but
effective?

How about a fake flowerpot filter, more in the 20-30 gallon size? I have
pictures on my website under *My Filter* scroll down to the bottom of that
page to see the pics. ~ jan
