Hello, I am constructing a new 5000 gallon koi pond. Originally, I was going to run a bottom drain to a pre-filter to a bio falls with a uv filter into a stream back into the pond. The skimmer would also run to the bio falls. I am now very interested in bog filtration. The problem is that I do not have the space to put the bog above the waterfall. I am thinking of building a bog adjacent to the stream and have it dump into the stream halfway back to the pond. Does it make sense to split the dirty water between the bio falls and the bog? Maybe a "Y" fitting with some kind of valve to control the flow between the waterfall and bog? Fyi, the bog will not be large enough to handle the size of my pond, so the bio falls will be supplementary filtration to the bog. Not sure if I am asking the right question or if it makes sense. Thanks for any suggestions.
