Hello All,
I had some intermittent work time on my new pond/bog filter this winter but spent more time on stuff I could do inside.
Lots of preliminary stone/wall work done outside. Bog manifold is done, etc. Now I'm working on the DIY skimmer which is a modified Oz Ponds design. (Rectangular box instead of round bucket to accommodate pump). On Kev's design he uses a flap of liner as a weir held in place by some rocks in the pond.
I am considering using an integrated weir "door" (JUST the door, not the entire skimmer) since I have a flat surface on the side of the box for mounting.
My thought is that this might be more "fixed" in position than the flap, so more consistent in height in the water.
Any input or ideas are appreciated. Thanks.
