My old aquarium filter that was in the 300g pond just died. Is it ok to have no filter or no water movement in the pond? Too lazy and too broke to get a pond filter. There are 10 comet goldfish and about 10 rosy red minnows in a 300g pond with plants covering 90% of the top and hornwort and java moss at the bottom. At the top 60% is water hyacinth 20% water cress and 10% water lillies. I've been spraying the hose in there for a minute before I feed is that good enough?

What part of hell are you from?
Are you using a hard spray (will aerate the water) or a gentle spray (not much of anything)
That's a small bio-load so you shouldn't have a problem if you do partial water changes once a week.
Can you get an air pump in there? It will help with circulation.
Check and see if there is a Harbor Freight near you, I just oicked up a 1855gph pump for $20, even if you put this on a timer and ran it every couple of hours it would work out fine
You really should get something.
The bio load will catch up also the weeds will eventually smother the tank.
