Will look it up thanks. The filter is 4 foot tall so it might not be that
bad it is large enough to handle the full 3800GPH plus if I was pumping with no head at all. "RichToyBox" wrote in message news:HoFTa.116262$GL4.30407@rwcrnsc53... It is my understanding that you would need to have a filter that will filter down to about 5 micron. This fine a filter will clog very quickly in most ponds. Did a Google with micron, and algae for rec.ponds and found several posts on the subject. -- RichToyBox http://www.geocities.com/richtoybox/pondintro.html "Mickey" wrote in message ... I work for a company that uses industrial filtering systems for water and found a filter to use for a prefilter that I think will work great. The question is what micron rating is good for a pond? I would like to filter out some of the green crud that keeps me from seeing deeper than 5 inches. I am hoping this will work. I thought about getting a 20 micron or smaller and seeing how long it takes it to clog up. If it would last a week that would be great. |
