Yes, a trash guard is a good suggestion. I had originally intended for the end of the pipe with the offset to be on the pond side, angled down so as to draw water from below. Due to an impromptu design change I flipped it around. In the future I plan on welding some offsets on both ends in order to make a siphon overflow / drain. For now, the pipe is capped and the spillway is the only overflow. Thanks for the suggestion, and compliment�.. gw
