So far so good here. Filter has been in the ground since 1997 and 2000 at
the D.pond. Both filters have lost their bead of silicon around some of
their bulkheads on the inside (an added precaution) and still are water
tight. Click on My Filter: www.jjspond.us and more pictures at the Demo
Pond link. I highly recommend a prefilter. ~ jan

Thanks Jan, I was hoping you would answer. I'm pretty sure I'm going above
ground, with some SonoTubes to support my Pump House/Water Wheel. I have the
tops for the barrels, so I'm wondering if I can get a good enough seal to
put the pump in the top of the last barrel. I guess we'll see.
