<p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0">A good system is of key importance in keeping your water crystal-clear and free of chemical pollutants. Our filter line is designed to meet a wide range of needs, for both large and small ponds. Biological Filter - biological is the most important. This process removes toxins. </p>
<p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"><strong aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0">Biological Filter Systems:</strong> Biological filtration is where your system provides a place for beneficial bacteria to grow on special media. The system focuses the growth of bacteria. These bacteria remove harmful pollutants,through a natural process, from pond water. Known as the " Bio Filtration " or " bio reactors " these beneficial bacteria convert poisonous compounds such as ammonia and nitrite, into less toxic nitrate. The end by-product, nitrate, is used as a food source by aquatic plants. This continuous process is called the nitrogen cycle. This type may be the most important filtration process in a system containing koi or goldfish.</p>

You can use a 5000gph rated filter with a 3000gph pump. You can’t use a 2000gph rated filter with a 3000gph pump and expect it to perform properly. The more fish you have, the more filtration capacity you’re going to need to capture and convert their waste to plant food. Undersized filters are a common problem with ponds. Choose a filter that is easy to clean. Yes, they need periodic cleaning. Check with the supplier or manufacturer for suggested frequency of cleaning. Once every week or so should be an average if properly sized. Oversizing of your filtration may cut down on the frequency of cleaning, but not eliminate it. Undersizing of your filter is going to cause you more problems and headaches than the few dollars you saved is worth.</span></font></font></p>
