Was thinking that with the falls, stream, bog, and a reasonably high flow of 6500 gph, that we may not need aeration???


Some pictures would really help!

A bog is usually considered part of the inflow. A bog/wetlands/marsh is most efficient with a low flow rate which allows for a longer RT (Resident Time) of the water. 6500 gph is to much flow for a small bog/wetlands/marsh. I would recommend plumbing the bog/wetlands/marsh separate from any waterfall feature. You will still need an aerator
