Good morning,
I was wondering if someone could answer a question that's going around in my head for me??
I have just moved house and starting to plan out our new pond, our previous pond was pump fed into a kockney 5000 filter and now i want to go gravity fed, the pond will be roughly 6' deep and fed into hopefully a nexus 220 filter and return via a water blade or a return below water level (haven't made my mind up on this yet). The filter will be housed in a shed along side the pond with the water level in the filter the same as the pond. There will be a pump after the filter going into a UV light then return to pond.
My question is..... If there is an major leak anywhere on the system would the pond totally empty itself or would it stop pumping if the water level got to a certain level eg the water level fell below the level of the filter system?
Sorry if it sounds a dumb question
