If you need another hole digger next year count me in! Im excited to see how this all comes about.
OK guys, this is in the works for this summer. We are talking a 12 foot round above ground pool with 33 inch sides...about 1700 gallons. I need to design a filter for this. Nandi and I were talking about a brute can with some sort of media (like rocks) where the water is pulled into holes punched along the bottom of the brute can with a pond pump inside the can pushing water out of the top of the can into the pool. I have never had a pond before so open to comments/suggestions on a filter/flow for this thing.
Your discus are talking to you....are you listening
Might what to check out something called hydro corn, not sure about the name, they use in hydroponics, baked clay balls, cheap comes in fifty pound bags. Very porous. Not sure about the name though.

I'd look into the different types of things people use for koi pond filtration. Once upon a time I had a 55 gallon drum with settlement chamber at bottom up through several layers of matala and bio on top. I really like the K1 moving beds too that I've seen people build.
