New project, will take a long time

No I have a main cut off valve entering the filtration system, with a gravity based filter the water line of the pond needs to match the water line at the top of the filter, the pump goes in the last part and lowers the level and the rest works on gravity.Tequila;2190706; said:Here is my question, why do you want to put the filteration system below ground level? The pond I understand, but the filteration????
So many things can go oh so very wrong here and you may not know it until it's way too late. I can only hope that you have made plans to place cut off valves between each and every container and from where the water leaves the pond and where it returns to the pond.
The ideal way to do it would have been to build up 4 foot from the ground and yes then have the filtration above ground but still level with the pond. Yes a valve between each chamber would have been the way to go and can be retro fitted if necessary but they are freaking expensive
Chamber one is a settling chamber that by the power of gravity runs all the mud, dirt etc down via the vortex to the drain.zennzzo;2190733; said:
Two is mechanical
Three is bio
The idea was that four could be anything and run the gravity system.
Can you elaborate I don't understand?
I see your new mod like duties are keeping you busyRed Devil;2190753; said:who is George?

more then usual..... but i try to keep up with you and everything else new...
Left hand side wall all but sorted, 2 thirds of the right hand wall(the bad one) concreted, all pipework concreted in.
Hole one almost complete and ready for liner in a few days.
Now please just stay dry long enough not to cause any more damage
Zen, will 24 hours be ok for the concrete to go off enough to remove the boards?
Pictures later

I'd go 2 days because there might be load already on it. It also depends on the mix you used and how thick.
Temperature has alot to do with it to.
Looks like it's getting sorted out...
We're all pullin' for you out here too, Bro...
Here is a good read too...
