What is a "Skippy" filter ?
In our larger raised pond (still quite small) we have a Hozelok Ecoclear 2200 pump, filter and UV. We also have a small pre-form which has two goldfish and some oxygenators, and a small (650gph) fountain pump in, and we'd like to filter that, but don't want to go to the expense of the Hoselok system for something that small. So could I use some other filter, eg Skippy ? TIA Peter |

I am a believer, since my pond cleared up in a week, after buildoing a Skippy filter. Of course, that could be due in part to the bacteria and barley straw pellets I put in the bottom of the Skippy filter. |
