    Thanks everyone. I isolated the water garden and proved that the problem's there. When isolated the pond did not drop but the water garden dropped about 10cm in a week (smaller surface area).

    It had been turned off to dry after getting externally submerged in the storm...

    Thanks both.

    No, I didn't think to test at the time. My priority was to physically secure the pond, get the pump back online and then to deal with the storm's other non-pond effects.
