she has 2 "big sister" filters on that one pond. the ammonia was removed in 10 days

filters became useless. once ammonia was lowered by the plants the big sisters
kicked back in. in ANY case, there is now NO ammonia, NO nitrates either, so they no
longer have to do routine water changes. Ingrid



Forgive my newness, but what is a "big sister" filter?
