Hi. I'm currently hand bucketing water water from my duck pond to my wetland filter, gravity feeds back to the duck pond. Thinking a pump run directly from a solar panel, no battery or inverter, to the wetland would make my life easier.
Can anyone recommend a inexpensive solar powered pump?
I can build a macro filter around the pumps inlet but there will still be microscopic poop bits, dirt, sand, so on in the water. The pond is 10 x 20 feet by 4 feet deep. The wetland filters are 3 bug garden trays of duck weed, and 2 old bathtubs with salmon berries in one, cattails in the other. The duck water is passed through the duck weed then the salmon berries, finally the cattails, gravity then feeds the water back to the pond.
