We also have the filter/skimmer and that traps a lot of stuff, but in addition to that, we have bog type areas that we put on most of the outer edges of the pond. Instead of a regular plant shelf, when we were building the pond, DH put in rocks on end to form a breakwall (I believe they are foamed in) and then the shelves were filled with prewashed pea gravel. The plants are planted directly into the pea gravel with the idea of the plant roots and the pea gravel aiding in the filtration process.
