    Garden Pond Advice

    I am thinking of relocating the pond, and was looking at the pipes.

    I have 2 pipes going over the edge of the pond, one to the pump to pull water out, and the other is the return from the filter.
    It is standard 1inch pond pipe.

    I would like to drill holes, out of sight, below water level, and connect the pipes, so they are not unsightly.

    Is there anywhere that sells inside and outside the pond connectors that I can push fit the pipe to, thereby keeping it below water level?
    I have looked at local pond shops, and all they have are just one way, but I need to connect the pipe on both sides of the pond plastic.

    I hope that makes sense.

    No how about investing in a fully submerged pump.

    or do what I would do if had the space, connect the fountain to the mains water, then the overflow to the mains drain, saves bothering.

      I have a fully submerged pump that feeds and external filter.

      Using to water fall to return water is a good idea, instead of feeding it from the pump directly. Saves on one pipe.
