Product Description
BioSmart filters are packed with features and filtration capacity. The high-surface area filter foams provide exceptional biological filtration capability with respect to size of the filter.
The unique design of the water flow through the filter collects debris at the filter bottom and reduces clogging of the foams. Any clogged-up foams can easily be freed up via the built-in cleaning mechanism, so there is no need to remove (and possibly damage) the filter foam from their mounts. It also makes filter maintenance fast and neat.
Added features like built-in cleaning indicators and water temperature gauges round out these filters as excellent choices for smaller ponds with low fish load.
Product Features
- Distinct Filter Zones: BioSmart filters feature distinct zones that promote the settlement of the beneficial bacteria responsible for different phases of the nitrogen cycle, increasing the conversion of harmful ammonia in the pond.
- Built-in Cleaning Mechanism: No need to remove or manually unclog the filter foams of the BioSmart filters. Simply shut off your pump, pull on the built-in cleaning handles and drain the sludge through the built-in drain. Quick to do and this retains the beneficial bacteria that keep the filter working.
- Advanced Features: The cleaning indicator, along with the temperature gauge and sludge drain are just some of the features that make BioSmart the most user-friendly and easy to maintain entry-level pond filter.
