You have these options

Optical impairment

Pond filters and pumps with their plastic housings do not match a pond that looks natural. They seem out of place and annoying and therefore usually fall into place immediately eye.

In order to visually conceal them, they can be disguised without any problems. However, you must make sure that you still have sufficient access to the devices:

• to dismantle them
• to open them when necessary
• to purify them
• to be able to read the display for cleaning

Coverings must therefore always be designed in such a way that they allow easy access to the devices and also can be completely removed (e.g. if the pond filter and pond pump are dismantled during the winter months and stored in the house will).

Fairings in trade

Most of the claddings offered in stores are designed as "decorative rocks". They look quite convincing and fit in well with many plant environments.

If you do not particularly like this "uniform design", you can also resort to more creative options.

Disguise as a small house

House-shaped cladding is very popular. The small houses look like model houses and are often lovingly executed: with half-timbered or thatched roof, True to the original with windows, doors and masonry or as a complete system of several houses side by side.

Creative disguises

In principle, you can use any material and any decorative object that can accommodate a pond filter and pond pump. The possibilities for this are almost unlimited:

Just take an old decorative keg and place the pond pump and pond filter in it. You can then conveniently lead the outlet straight through the bunghole of the keg.

Build a "treasure chest" or a pirate chest for the pond bank and put the two devices in it. If the box turns out to be a bit larger, you can also put a little pond accessories with you.

A hollow tree stump or a planted bowl can also be used to accommodate the pond filter and pond pump.
