Vegetable filter

Post by Sanke »

Hi all
Looking to build a veg filter to finalise the filter system. I want to use decking /timber to build a box but struggling to find a way to bring water up & out. Anybody got any ideas ?

The traditional way is to send the return water from the filter system into the vegetable filter and allow it to overflow back to the pond in the form of a waterfall. But there are other options depending on your current layout. Any chance of a picture or a description?
