Hi Khoo

Can you be so kind as to do the calculation for me? Posted the question about one year ago at local forum, i think the cow has not come home yet!

My indoor pond is at 7ft L (including 1 ft filter) 4.3 ft W and 3 ft D and currently using the OMNI pump at the first chamber, will also like to transfer to last chamber (tried not successful leh)

Oh yah a picture will be better.

I'm sorry for not making myself clear.
Wanted to check if my pump is suitable for my present pond size, especially relocating it to the last chamber.
If not possible, must I add additional release pipe outlet to the pond directly to act as circulating the bottom water? [biggrin]

Hi again
I still cannot figure out your pond and filter box.

Correct me if I am wrong.
You have a 7x4x3ft tank. However, the actual pond size is 6x4x3ft 'cos 1x4x3ft is partition for filtration system.

This filter system consists of 3 chambers. Am I correct? If I am, could you pls expl. the inflow and outflow directions of water from chamber to chambers. I may assumed that water from main pond enters the first chamber thro' an inlet by means of water gravity.

More info. pls. and thanks.

you are correct

Filter consists of 4 chambers.
First house the pump 1ft x 10ins with two inlet, one skimmer and one bottom sucking assist by the gravity.
The pump transfer the water into the second chamber, 1ft x 1 ft, flooring via piping.
It then overflows to the third and then forth chamber and flow out back into the pond.

There is a power head at the forth chamber supplying water to the 4 ft water trough(with some plants) that drips the water back to the pond

Kum Sa Mi Da - In advance
