Aquarium Advice Freak
Hello I just aquired a house with a pond. I have calculated it out to be about 700 gallons. At one time I was told it had fish but they were mistaken for sushi by the local racoons.
The pond has a water fall at the opposite end of the pump. It is about 30" higher than the pump and does not appear to be changing the water enough. I looked at the pump and it is a little giant waterfall pump rated at 1450 gph. The pond is full of algae (hairy green kind) which I am getting rid of with some algae remove. It has cleared up allot in the last week so I am hoping it will continue.
My ?'s are
Should I invest in another pump and submersible filter so the water will flow more.
What is the best way to keep the Racoons out. Anyone use a scarecrow?
Thanks for your help.
