My liner on a very old water feature fell apart, so we are using this chance to dig deeper and update the pond. It was built without any skimmer or filter originally, and collects way too many leaves.
So I want to use this chance to install a skimmer. Space outside the water feature is extremely limited and it's a smallish pond (8 ft diameter, going to 30 inches max for depth, it was 18 inches deep all across before).
I don't want a fish killing skimmer. THe easypro inside the liner skimmers (prelude or melody) seem like the best bet. I cant tell if they have a weir door hto.
Is a weir door necessary? I see several options without it (i.e helix).
anyone tried the prelude or melody?
there's no space to do a negative edge or bog filter --\
I wish I could do a helix but we can't see anyway to make that work - plus it seems overkill for my little pond.
