Filters

     
 
Although you should let Mother Nature be your guide when designing your pond or
 
water feature, some help from man's engineering is necessary.
 
 
Keeping ponds clean requires both biological & mechanical filtration.  Mechanical
 
filtration involves the removal of solid waste. 
 
 
Hoffman's Garden Center carries a range of filtering devices.
