How do you clean a pond

[LastMagicBean]

Well we all should know a syphon wont work on the surface due to sucking in air.

Absolutely. Who said that then...????
I assumed you were talking about your hosepipe being below water level, for sucking surface crap or any other water related waste.

are you just here to troll..

I find that accusation highly offensive,
coming from someone who can't take constructive criticism.


For the record, I stand by what I posted.
My apologies if you took it badly.
But you were wrong.
I simply disagree that you advise a poster to suck on a hosepipe in order to clear waste matter.

What size is your pond exactly? i mean how many gallons does it hold?

I'm asking because you said it is filtered by a 'green genie' these are not the best filters around really, especially for a large pond.

What size UV does your filter have and when was it last changed? They need replacing periodically?

Give more details about your set up etc
