Default VF...1 Foot Deep Enough?

1 ft should be plenty deep. Are all your plants going to be in pots?

That is my plan...I want to plant the VF so dense you can barely see the
water...I want the water to flow in from the Bottom Drain, settle here and
then be sucked into a pump house where I will seperate my pump from the VF
using some kind of physical filter, just in case. The pump will then dump
back into the main pond.

For proper filtration, I suggest you float them bareroot -
no pots. If you choose the proper plants, the water will
soon be completely covered.
