| Fish Mate Gravity Fed Bio Filters with UV feature a powerful 3 stage mechanical and biological filtration system. The designs of Fish Mate UV + Bio filters guarantee crystal clear, purified water with minimal maintenance, all at a fraction of the cost of conventional filter systems. Sponge pads collect algae and catch large particles. Supra bio media rapidly colonises beneficial bacteria to remove nitrite and ammonia from the pond. Easier filter maintenance due to a flip up lid on top. Bio Gravity Fed Filters w/UV must be placed next to the pond or on top of a waterfall.
Special Note: We have received the fishmate 238 in place of the 237. The filter difference is in the height of the filter. The 238 is 25" x 17" x 21". Questions feel free to email or call.

Stage 1:
Algae Destruction. By slowly passing the single celled algae that cause 'green water' in front of U.V.-C light, the algae is caused to clump together and start to die.
Stage 2:
Mechanical Filtration. Specially developed, profiled filter sponge pads will trap algae clumps plus other large particles and are easily rinsed for regular maintenance.
Stage 3:
Biological Purification. After mechanical filtration, the pond water passes through Fish Mate SUPRA Biological Filter Medium, possessing over 100 times the biological surface area of conventional plastic media. The specific structure of SUPRA enables rapid growth of aerobic bacteria resulting in removal of lethal ammonia and nitrite. |
