Shower location

If I build a 6000 g pond with 450g box of J mat filter and plan put one shower with bio ball? but I don't know it ok to put it on top of J mat filter box is better of after J mat filter. Reason I ask because I don't have a lot of room in side my filter room. So my idea is BD to SC to pump to shower to J mat filter box and go back to pond by TPRs Anyones have idea? thank you

So you want to pump water into the shower filter....and then use a different pump to return it to the pond thru TPRs? NOT a good idea. The balancing act will be nearly impossible to achieve. One pump will suck harder than the other....that's just a given. I would either figure out a way to gravity feed the shower, or gravity feed the return.
