cleaning ponds
How big is your pond? A shop vac works, as does a hose-powered pool vac, if
you have a smooth bottom and enough volume to handle the added tap water.

cleaning ponds
I just installed my pond this year but thinking about the first cleaning. We
have a small submergible utility pump and the output attaches directly to the pump. Thinking I could use this pump/hose combination to run a small pool vac, would be using and returning the pond water to power the vacuum, don't see why this wouldn't work but wanted to check with others who might be doing the same thing. I have gravel on the bottom of my pool but it is smooth and don't think it will be a problem to move use the vacuum? Make sense? "Phyllis and Jim Hurley" wrote in message ... How big is your pond?

Should have said, the output of the utility pump connects directly to a
garden hose. "Dave M" wrote in message ink.net... I just installed my pond this year but thinking about the first cleaning.
