Great advice as always. I have a pump fed system straight to a bio force revolution as a pre filter and then to a 3 bay filter with brushes, flocor and matting. To clean I just spin the revolution handle a few times and shake the brushes and drain the first bay. Works brilliant and had no filtration issues for years 👍
How do you solve the pipe blockage? Recently i had an issue: fishes had swept the gravel in the bottom drain and the pump was running dry, even as the pump basin was the same depth as the bottom of the pond. Still, in my country, pond is a luxury and who can afford it can pay for a large filter room. I use a huge sedimentation pre filter, gravitational seeve filters, everything under ground, concrete walls and all the bells and whistles. If there is a possibility, I connect the bottom drain to the drains so time to time i can open the tap for one minute to clean the pipes
@@oliverskinner8962 i put gravel only around the edge, first step, bordered with a row of stones, so gravel should never fall to the bottom. Except the fishes, somehow, can manege to stir up everything, and some of the gravel, and other silt goes to the bottom. However there is a nice adaptor for pressure washer, to clean up the pipes.
The benefits of this system would be not having unsightly Flexi pipe inside your pond and the pump would be easier to access inside the pump chamber. Lots of people build raised ponds so their filter system is also above ground. Personally I'd stick some filter brushes in the pump chamber as they tend not to get clogged and will trap big things like leaves, twigs and blanket weed 👌

Which box is a good Choice for Those Pump Chambers?
Anything water proof, my dad used a dust bin I think. You could even block build and put a liner in, or a small water butt, anything really

I would have a bottom drain with gravel. I would just have pumps in the pond or no gravel.

@@orlovszki and also don't forget to use a pond vacuum to suck stuff up !
@@oliverskinner8962 after spending a fortune testing vacuums I gave up. Have a reliable brand?
