Looking to raise fathead minnows and/or golden shiners in a small pond about 3000 gallons. I have an aieration system in the pond. Looking for suggestion on filtration. No electricity at pond airliner only. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

If you are handy, making one will be your best bet. Use the same concept of a box filter (1742339729591.png ) only use a bucket for the container and PVC piping for the lift tube. You will need to use larger diameter tubing for the air.
Another option is to use a larger pool style pump closer to an electrical outlet and plumb the intake and outflow pipes back to the pond. ( This is what my former neighbor did with his Koi Ponds. )


Hope this helps. (y)
