Aquascape - Classic Series
A biofilter has one single function... to purify fish excretions
(contain ammonia) which are part of the natural respiratory and feeding function OF POND FISH OF ALL TYPES.
Filtration is one of the most important elements of your system. The filter not only removes debris but, more importantly, your filter converts toxic substances into harmless ones.
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.
Biological Filter Systems: 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.
