Water Gardening: Raised pond built with cut stones, 1 by HollyAnnS

I have a small submersible pump with no filter in my one small pond. We took a plastic milk crate and zip-tied barley straw pads to each side and the top. We set the pump under the crate so that most of the water that gets pulled through the pump goes through the barley straw pads. I set a couple of bricks and a water plant on top of the crate to keep it in position. Seems to work well for our use.
