"Bog" filtration?
Hi.
While digging this new turtle pond I've been working on, there was a very small portion of ground where the two yard fences met, and being on the digging spree I was, I hollowed it out about 10" deep, 18" wide, 8" tall. If it EVER stops raining here I'm going to go out and put the finishing touches on the digging and once again and FINALLY lay the liner, and that will go into this little "hole" I dug, too. While I was digging it in the back of my mind I was thinking some kind of bog filter, or place for the clean water to enter and flow over the ledge back into the main turtle pond, or SOMETHING. So what exactly is the criteria for a big filtration area? Do I now put tiny pebbles in the lined hole and plant bog plants and let the water slowly go into this area? What makes a bog filtration area a filtering place? The media in it? The rate that the water enters it and leaves it? Trying to make it work in my mind so I can then make it work in reality. TIA.
