Hi Nick, is there a way to get a copy of your notebook page? It's hard to read with camera movement. I want to build this design but need to understand flow rate. Thank you.
Hi Yvette, sure - the fastest way is here at koiforum at one of the original threads on this: www.koiforum.uk/pond-construction-pond-build-diaries/25586-airlifts-pumping-water-gravity-system-using-6.html#post398279 you will need to register/sign in for image access. There's lots more good info on airlifts in the same thread as that post.
@@yvettestewart8002 No problem. A number of airlift designs work - they could be a U bend without a collector, inside a collector (like mine). The main thing with gravity feed is to ensure there's enough height difference between the pond water level (pushed up as water is pushed into the pond) and the return into the pond collector or filter elements which may cause the flow to be cut off.

Thank you Nick. I'm going to do my best to follow along. There is a bunch of good info here.
