I have a 2" intake pipe on a pump system for aeration.
In the past, I've rigged a half section of a metal minnow trap to act as a screen/ filter. This has been only somewhat satisfactory.
Distal end of the intake pipe is 2-3 feet beneath the surface. If I don't use some type of "screening" aparatus, my pump will clog with baitfish, pond trash etc, in short order.
Any ideas of a simple build for a screen device or where to purchase something that will connect to the 2" PVC pipe and keep debris out of my pump?
Thanks!
