the inside of the BioFalls
(Ex. 41). Be careful not to
damage the threads on the
nut inserts when punching
the holes with the awl.
Remove the awl or nail while
holding waterfall snout and
liner in place and begin
threading one of the screws
into the filter.
• Repeat this process for the
other screw.
• Remove the waterfall lip
from the BioFalls, keeping
the screws installed through
the waterfall lip and liner.
• Place a thick bead of
silicone across the insert
nuts on the front of the
BioFalls (Ex. 42). Pre-
installing the two screws
in the earlier steps will
make it easy to line up the
waterfall lip after the silicone
is applied and will keep the
silicone in as thick of a
bead as possible.
• Reattach the waterfall lip
and liner using the two pre-
installed screws (Ex. 43).
• Using an awl or nail, poke
the remaining holes in the
waterfall lip and install the
rest of the screws (Ex. 44).
• Remove extra liner, using
the waterfall lip as a guide
(Ex. 45).
• Let dry for at least one hour before introducing water.
WARNING: Power tools are not recommended
for installing the screws and may strip the nut
inserts.

STEP 13
BUILD THE WATERFALL
• Make sure there is at least 2 feet of liner on either side of
the BioFalls (Ex. 47).
• Place two larger boulders on either side of the waterfalls
you are creating in order to "frame" the waterfalls. The
water will be running between the two larger boulders
Ex. 43
you've set in place (Ex. 47).

• You can now begin to stack
the rocks between the two
larger boulders. These are
the rocks that the water will
be running over, so take
your time and be creative.
Start with the larger rocks
on the bottom and work
Ex. 45
your way up to the smaller
ones on top (Ex. 48).
• Small stones and gravel can be used to fill in the gaps
between the larger waterfall stones.
