Default a challenge for the rec.ponds experts

I know, she needs a 2nd pond, with black liner to grow the necessary
algae.... which could be a veggie filter with plants.

After reading all our ideas & opinions, I'd sure scrap using the white
liner. ;o) ~ jan

Hi,
Of course I would not do it like you would ;-) but do want to emphasize the
point you made about algae. I've heard/read/made up, that about 30% of bio
filtration happens right in the pond. The algae that will need to be brushed
off to maintain this white setup will need to be compensated for with a
larger filter no matter what type is used and closer monitoring of
parameters. UV or not UV - not!
L8R -_- how
no NEWS is good
