Planning a new pond and Hi
 

Hi,

Thanks for the warm welcome. Is this forum a multi country forum. If so
thats quite cool. The ones I am on are quite divided.

Anywhoo I hope to stick around and I will be more than happy to help
anyone who is stuck. I'm not a newbie to the pond game as this new
ponds will be my 4th pond project and I want to build it as big as I
can as I always see the bigger the better, Easier to get ecological
balance etc.

I am steering towards the fishmate compact 8w UV and bio/ mech filter
and a fishmate pump of about 1500 litre/ hour.

I would love to do something like running my current 600lph pump into
my ecocell 2200 filter but use a spray bar to aerate the water or maybe
use a ventur into the filter but this might cause too much movement. I
would then use the ecocell as a secondary filter but use better filter
media like some nice brushes and some flocor type stuff.

I could then run the fishmate pump and filter as the main filtration
system with additional air stones.

Does anyone know what filter media the fishmate gravity fed compact
filter uses? I cant really tell from the pictures.

Thanks,

Daniel
