Filtration
hey everyone. ive been working on my pumps and filtration methods. i used
to pump about 8 gallons a minute through a somewhat thick filter material and within a week my pond was pretty clear. at the time the filtered water went directly into the pond from the filter material. now, i have about 10-15 gallons per minute cascading down a waterfall and the top is filled with hyacinth. there is no filter material now... when i use filter material (even with the old set up) i was cleaning the material almost everyday. i havnt had to change it all now with the hyacinth as my filters, but the pond is completely green now. what should i be doing in order to not be cleaning my filters everyday and get my pond back to being clean. The filer is about 1 foot off the bottom of the pond so it doesnt pick up any muck.. is this correct? any help is appreciated thanx! John |
