BV, I think it is way too early to drain the veggie filter. In fact, I
don't drain mine
until springtime. I usually end up having a home for frogs and other wild
life in the
veggie filter. I do remove the water hyacinths though.

That is normally what I do, but the leak in my stream has gotten much worse.
I am now losing about 6-8 inches of water a week which is enough to put my
pump out of the water. When I said shut the VF down, what I really meant,
was moving the VF plants to the main pond, and then shutting down the VF so
I can clean it, and patch the stream. This way the plants are still there to
clean the water. I can circulate the main pond with a smaller pump.

BV.
