WASH ROCKS AND GRAVEL

• Using a garden hose, wash the rock and gravel down in

order to remove the dust and dirt. Use the pump provided

with the kit attached to a scrap section of kink-free pipe.

The pump can temporarily be placed in the lowest

point of the pond and the dirty water discharged to a

drainage area in the yard.

STEP 6

COMPLETE THE MICROSKIM

• The MicroSkim

has two holes on either side of the unit

for the plumbing to travel to the MicroFalls

plumbing hole that is most convenient. The pipe simply

passes through the opening on either side

of the MicroSkim

• The pump's electrical cord can positioned over the top

edge of the skimmer.

• Insert the barbed multi-hose adapter included with the

pump onto the end of the pipe and tighten down hose

clamp. Thread the end of the pipe onto the rotational ball

fitting attached to the pump and lower into the MicroSkim

OVERFLOW INSTALLATION (RECOMMENED BUT

OPTIONAL

• Attach and trench a section of kink-free pipe into place (3'

minimum). Create a drainage area at the end of the pipe by

excavating a small pit, roughly 16" in diameter and at least

12" deep. Fill the pit with excess gravel. This will allow

water in an overflow situation to flow through the pipe and

drain away from the pond. (See Ex. 14)

• A layer of scrap underlayment fabric, soil or sod can be

added to cover the drainage area.

STEP 8

WATER PUMP PLUMBING

• Run your tubing from the water pump in the skimmer to

your desired location or point of entry.

STEP 9

ADD WATER

• Fill up the pond basin with water. The pond should be

filled just below the level of the overflow in the

MicroSkim

Note: We recommend adding Aquascape Pond Detoxifier to dechlorinate and

properly condition water prior to introducing fish to your new pond. See your

Aquascape dealer for water treatment products.
