Filters Selection

A filtration system for your pond should remove the toxins produced as a byproduct of the Nitrogen Cycle.

Skimmers
A skimmer filter typically rests on the perimeter of your pond opposite the prevailing direction of current and wind to catch debris and large particles on the water surface. This prevents the debris and particles from falling into your pond where they would decompose and produce harmful nitrites and release them into the pond’s water. These filters only clean the water surface but may provide complete filtration for very small, shallow ponds.

Canister Filters and Prefilters
These filters are installed on the intake side of your pump to protect it from debris and large particles that could damage its impeller or clog your pipes.

Biological Filtration
Biological Filtration is best option to remove toxins from your pond water and to provide a safe and healthy environment for your aquatic wildlife. Biological filters house beneficial bacteria which help convert toxic nitrites into helpful nitrates, to be used by plants. Biological filters typically clean the water through mechanical filtration in addition to treating the water and removing toxins.

Ultraviolet Clarifiers
Ultraviolet clarifiers are most often used in combination with a filter or actually inside the filter itself. UV clarifiers are designed specifically to tackle the problem of green water due to water borne algae. By killing suspended algae, bacteria, and other microorganisms that flow through the clarifier, UV clarifiers return clear, safe water back to your pond.

It is essential that the Bioforce units or biomedia in the bottom are never washed out, otherwise the bacteria colony is destroyed, which will take 6 weeks to re-form. They work best dirty, as long as the water is able to pass through. String algae typically cover substrate or lining,string algae are not affected as they do not pass through the clarifier.
