Lava rock or pea gravel is recommended for extra filtration and wait. But where do you buy the Lava Rock/pea gravel because chewy does not have it? Chewy as decorative gravel only. And where does the lava rock/ pea gravel go in the pump itself specifically?
Answer by • Jul 11, 2019
This kit comes with a coarse pad for catching large debris as well as a finer mesh pad to help remove fine particles. You also have space beneath these pads to add lava rock or pea gravel for more biological filtration. Pea gravel or lava rock can be purchased through a DIY hardware store or a garden center in your area.
How many ft can this be in the water
Answer by • May 15, 2019
The pump by itself can be placed wherever you would like it as long as it is submerged. If using to operate the fountain, the maximum depth will be 18 inches.
Can a pre-filter be attached to help reduce cleanings?
Answer by • Jul 10, 2019
A pre-filter can be used in tandem with this filtration system to help reduce the amount of necessary cleanings.
can I attach a uv light to the filter unit
Answer by • Aug 24, 2020
If you are just connecting an inline uv light, it sits outside the pond. You run tubing from the pump inside the pond to the inlet of the uv then additional tubing from the outlet of the uv to the pond or waterfall, wherever you want the water to empty back into the pond at. Be careful to use hose clamps and teflon tape wherever you connect tubing to avoid leaking. Your flow rate through the uv should be half of the pond water volume per hour or 250 gph and we would recommend the UVC-5. If you have a larger pump with more flow, move up to the UVC-9.
