I lot of pond contractors never stopped using Lava rock. Its use depends on the type of biofilter being used.

I'm getting too old. I remember paying $50.00 for that book when it first came out and now it is FREE. It is a pretty comprehensive book however. Every pond contractor should have access to it.
Ițs ok may b bcz of ur money they had profit that they made it free today or can b only printing expenses 50$ , yes very comprehensive with pics.

Does it work as mechanical filter too ,for minute particles? I use filter fabric and gravel , sponges foam , iguess lava rocks get cloged up quickly , they work well in wide open bog and are difficult to clean compared to sponges fabric ubcan takeit out easily

I have never had a problem with mine but I keep plants in both my filters also .You can use quilt batting in a crate .I have crates on top of both my filters with re usable furnace filters in them .Easy to rinse with hose and toss back in

I looked for it on Amazon -- I still like "real" books best. The revised copy -- used -- is over $100!

Guess I'd better resign myself to reading online!
