I have built one very small pond in the past that did not require much thought on filter system and now I am wanting to create a large pond and am having trouble determining how the filter system should be setup
Basically the pond is 68' feet long 14' feet wide and 4 - 5' deep I want it to be a Koi pond that is in Maryland so the ground and pond could freeze during the winter, would like to make sure I avoid that.
There are two waterfalls, one on each end and I want 4 fountains in the pond, I want to make sure that it is done right from the beginning before I even break ground.
I have attached an image of it mocked up in some landscaping software, I am looking for a list of what would work best
My first thought was
Skimmer -> Filter -> External Pump -> Waterfall Filter
But I don't even understand the specifics on this setup.
Also, does anybody recommend a good pond book that I could use that would help with a large pond?
