Dick,
If I understand your response correctly, the initial concept I have been thinking about of eliminating the "doots" daily and separating/isolating the water filtration system to do nothing else but filter water is a GOOD one. Thanks. I am still thinking of including a secondary solids separator like a seive system (or something) before the filter system. If I plan to suck primarily lower-level to mid-level pond water, do you think its overkill? Are there normally significant amounts of solids free-floating in a pond at those levels? Especially if I have incorporated a good number of wall jets to provide good circulating currents. Thanks for all your help. I'm really serious about trying to make my first one right. One big Aloha.
