Edit: I'm sure this has been posted somewhere else on here so if someone could even just direct me to that discussion it would be greatly appreciated.
Totally new here but I've been looking at building a pond.
I was wondering if there is some way to have a skimmer feed into the same pipe as a bottom drain before it hits the filter and pump. I've also looked around online a bit but can't seem to find an answer to: where does all this debris go? Assuming that the drain and skimmer could be collecting leaves and a fair amount of pond scum over time would it not clog up the filter and/or pump fairly quickly and require frequent cleaning? Especially with leaves.
Thanks in advance
