Milky Way Galaxy,
Is there any way of keeping a natrual filter? i want to build a common snapping turtle pond and i dont have enough outlits cause my other pond uses them all. So is there anyway of creating a Natrual filter? I was thinking of making a circle of made of rocks that lies in the middle of the pond and putting bioballs in there so the water just flows threw if alomost natrualy cleaning it. Idk if it would work, any ideas???:nilly:
 
why not just buy a power strip? i mean, im no expert on filtration but i suppose that may work given you had some sort of powerhead or something, but then again, you need an outlet.

What is going to be moving the water? the turtle?
We'll am going to have XL Goldfish feeders in there so the fish and the turtle will move the water i spose.

Cant do a power strip A)its to far B) when it rains. Is there anything known to make waves without eletric maybe air??
 
this is a serious idea. you could always go and try to find some sort of windmill. that would utilize the wind and turn the mill which woudl turn the water. but other than that, im out of guesses lol
 
or, as the old saying goes, duct tape will fix anything, just go to lowes and buy a bunch of duct tape. throw about a dozen rolls in the pond and that should fix the problem haha

You could always put the extension cord through PVC or something run it underground and have a Power strip in a little box.

I could but wouldt i need a REAALLY strong wind to do it??? i could have those winders idk what there called but they use them in legos were its like a chain reaction and they move by being turned insted i could have one on the top of my tree and have a bunch of those "winders" and have a huge reaction, but i would need alot of wind i would think
