As always every project top seams too coincide with either spring or fall or what ever season where other Nishikigoi Kichi people her north seeks out help or advice. Must therefore admit that I don’t have the time I would have liked one this board or any other.



Nice to see that so many still are interstate in the basics. Dear Bekko the removal in “vortex” pond style is normal c-c in bottom when we make them. This is insured just by a smooth (1000-2000 girth) surface and mother nature (gravity) with concave walls all the way too drains. To make design and running cost as low as possible we follow SMG and the sewage plant approach with dwelling time (retention time). Naturally you could do the same a more expensive design and a pressure pump, my best ones bleed constantly off sludge.



When first opting for fall settlement pleas do not opt for too small footprints. We have gone through this time and time again. If the footprint only is big enough you get a nice patio and bring the water around any pond with minimum pump use. The watts are better used for more circulation and supplemented with water taken from other sources than the bottom drains.
