The AAP Hydro Pond Filter utilizes reticulated filter foam for higher flow rates. It provides both mechanical and biological filtration. Aerobic bacteria colonizes the sponge, providing a bacterial substance to facilitate the nitrogen cycle.
In addition, the Hydro Pond Filter traps larger waste particles mechanically cleaning the water.
ADVANTAGES:
When combined with a veggie filter (water iris or other bog plants with a small current of water passing through the plant roots), you will have an excellent filter system for under $150 that can maintain a pond up to 1500 gallons.
• The Hydro Pond #3 or #4 makes an excellent pre-filter (or even primary filter) for Sumps in Large aquariums!
In fact we have used Hydro Pond #3 or #4 Filters as the primary filter in aquarium sumps including Central Filter Systems, as the double patented reticulated sponges can easily handle 250 gallons of water as the primary filter!
The pictures left & right show different mounting possibilities (the right picture also shows a Filter Max Pre-filter)
• The #4 Hydro Pond filter is also an excellent pre-filter for canister filters especially polishing micron filters such as the Magnum
