I'm planning to build a pond part above ground and not sure how to mount filters. There will be about a 15" block wall (about 2 cinder blocks high) and then I will dig down another 24". I'm undecided on a diy skimmer and water fall or to buy them? My problem is how to mount a skimmer to a block wall with it being a level surface all the way around? It will be 12'x5' and around 3' deep.It will be right next to the house and deck. The steps from the deck is the reason for the short wall because it will be right next to the pond. Hopefully this will keep anyone from stepping onto the pond and could also be used as a seat. I know the skimmer has to be at water level and how can I run the plumbing to hide it? I would like to use something like this http://www.thatpetplace.com/pet/group/11695/product.web and http://www.thatpetplace.com/pet/group/11697/product.web
Will this even be possible for a block wall?
