My wife finally shamed me into getting off my lazy ass and fixing the pond that has been neglected for well over a year. I bought a filter to replace the old box filter I'd been using for the past 6 years. I'm actually kinda impressed. I was asking it to do the impossible and it almost did. Had I been a little more patient, it probably would have cleared it up in a few days. I bought this with my own hard-earned money so you can trust that I have nothing to gain one way or the other. For the price, I don't think you can go wrong with it. It's simple to setup. I never read the instructions and can't find them now anyways. The water is crystal clear now and I don't have to deal with tearing it all apart to clean the filter anymore. If you have a similar sized setup or want to make one, I recommend this unit to keep the water nice and clear with easy maintenance. Link below for the filter, hose, and pump. I've been using the same pump for about 4 years now so I can say with certainty that it's a solid unit. If you have any questions, leave them below.
