I put together a mini-bog in a pottery pot, more as a feature than as a practical filtering system, but, nonetheless,something that will contribute to the pond's water quality. I have a bottom layer of pea gravel, a mid layer of fine gravel and topped off with sphagnum peat. The water source is at the bottom and percolates up through the media to a stand pipe drain. Fortunately, I had the foresight to place a screen over the standpipe because the peat moss is just floating! Can I expect it to settle with time or should I do something to help it along?
