Thanks all for appreciating.

Upgrades are now done and I've been filling the pond with water - 9 hours na di pa tapos. will test it as soon as it gets filled.

Pumps used are 1 5000L/h for the TPRs, 1 3000L/h for the skimmer. Will buy another one for the waterfall. This on I think will have to wait until tomorrow. Recommendation as to its size is welcome.

Hoping that the water circulation will be as planned.

Update pics.

Showing part of Chambers 1 & 3. Chamber 2 is with engineering plastic ribbons.

Chamber 3 is filled with bags of gravel and topped with pebbles. Showing part of chamber 4 with a 5000lph pump for the TPRs and a 700lph pump for the waterfall.

Finished skimmer with a 3000lph pump

Finished waterfall

With the set-up, I think its the skimmer that feeds the filter chambers most and not the bottom drains. Is this a concern?

The fishes likes the TPRs most.

After 5 days the following were observed:

1. Di kaya i-full ang valve ng 5000lph na pump kasi na uubos ang tubig after 2 days. Pag di fully open, yung current ng 2 TPRs di na malakas.

2. Ang solid waste malapit sa dulo ng pond di na kaya kunin ng bottom drain. Pero yung within the"vicinity" ng drain malinis naman.

3. NEW PROBLEM!! Pond leak. Papa-settle ko muna para malaman saan lumalabas ang tubig. Minor lang naman ang mga ginawa at ipina-epoxy ko rin kaya nakakapagtaka. Worst case scenario is to SEAL the whole pond.

WISH List:

1. Sana ma-improve yung circulation ng tubig at a higher rate at

2. Sana makuha rin ang solids sa dulo ng pond.

sir i guess okey na ang bd as to solid waste not necessary lahat makuha as long mature na ang pond ky himo pod way pinaagi swimming motion sa kois and current padala lng sa bd

if okey pa back job mo sir.. better to reduce the connections ng mga chamber into at least 65% lining

we will try to work for the 5000lph... if kung ano dagdag natin ung isang pump sa ss then add vavle for the mini waterfalls...

try also to check if the elbow sa pinakadulo ng pipe for each chamber.. baka restricted ang flow kasi walang elbow... plain dowbward ang direction...

daan aq bukas para matulungan kita... thanks
