Hey all,
Been seriously reading about bog filters and how some members here have been using this filtration method to their ponds and the success stories from it. I wished I'd looked in to bog filters as only after reading, didn't even realise how efficient they can be.
My dilemma is..
Could I add a bog filter to my existing raised pond?
What height should it be?
What should it be made out of?
Do you need to fill with soil or rounded small stones?
Here's a pic of my setup and I can easily T off water from the pond pump to feed the bog but looking in to advice before plunging in.
This is possible layout of the shape of the bog filter as well as position. I could also place on opposite side (top left of pic) but need advice.
I do also have a water fall section from the Eazypod filter (top middle of pic) but not very deep - about 15cm depth but not easy to get to also.
Any advice would be appreciated.
