proj 2003 mini update
 

no big chages but I replaced one of my 2400 gph pumps with a 3600 going
to the waterfall
put the 2400 on the new TT instead of the old 1200 now have a 2' geyser.
put a new 1800 and replaced the tubing on the old TT instead of the
old 1000 that was necked down to 600.
all pumps are now on 1 1/2 or 2 in tubing/pipe depending on lenth of run
also they are all sitting in a 5 ft area near the center bottom of the
Koi pond ( all piping is inside the pond )
while I was in the pond I checked there is about 2 in of clay in the
bottom bottom ( did that make sense) hopefully the new pump arangement
will move it into the bog

the new plants are delayed seems they are still to cold at the nursery
to ship so my water is starting to go pea soup dangit

Hi John,

I get worn out every time I read about how you've changed
your pond! My My My ..
where do you guys get your energy??

I think it's absolutely wonderful that you and Carolann
can work so well together.

Your TT looks just great. Love the geyser! We wont talk
about where mine is ....

When you get the plants the water will clear quickly.
Looking forward to seeing your new photos.
