Keeping Pond <strong>Water</strong><br />
Crystal Clear<br />
Pond filter media is important <strong>to</strong> good filtration of<br />
your pond. Filter media will help keep your pond clear<br />
and healthy. There are three basic pond filter media<br />
types: mechanical, chemical and biological filtration.<br />
To maintain ideal pond water conditions all three<br />
types of filter media should be used.<br />
Pressure-Flo<br />
<strong>Laguna</strong> Pressure-Flo Complete<br />
Replacement Foam Kits provide<br />
<strong>com</strong>plete mechanical and some<br />
degree of biological filtration. Super<br />
porous foam material help keep pond<br />
water crystal clear while removing<br />
debris.<br />
Pressure-Flo Service Kits include<br />
foams, UV bulb, O-rings, cleaning<br />
brushes and silicone lubricant.<br />
Powerflo Max &<br />
External Biological Filter 1000<br />
The coarse foam material<br />
performs mechanical filtration,<br />
capturing dirt and debris as water<br />
flows through it. The foam is also<br />
porous <strong>to</strong> allow some degree of<br />
biological filtration.<br />
Spillway, Powerfalls & Powerflo 5000<br />
Mechanical and Biological<br />
Fine Filter Pads are made<br />
of densely-packed and<br />
intricately-woven material<br />
and are extremely effective at<br />
filtering out particulate waste.<br />
Bio-Max<br />
Biospheres<br />
Filter Wool<br />
Bio-Max promotes, protects and encourages<br />
beneficial bacteria in pond water resulting in a<br />
clean, clear pond. The filter media has a large<br />
surface area and a large number of perfectly<br />
sized pores <strong>to</strong> allow bacterial colonies <strong>to</strong> thrive<br />
which maintains a biological balance in pond<br />
water.<br />
Biospheres provide a large living area for<br />
beneficial bacteria <strong>to</strong> thrive. Placed in a pond<br />
filter, Biospheres efficiently reduce ammonia<br />
and nitrite <strong>to</strong> help maintain healthy pond water<br />
conditions and overall well-being of pond fish<br />
and plants.<br />
<strong>Laguna</strong> Filter Wool is an effective<br />
mechanical filter media that removes fine<br />
particles and prevents pond filters and other<br />
filter media from clogging. The special filter<br />
wool cleans pond water and helps produce<br />
ultra clear conditions.<br />
Biological Filter Media<br />
<strong>Laguna</strong> Biological Filter Media (lava rock) is<br />
the ideal host for large populations of beneficial<br />
bacteria <strong>to</strong> grow. Placed in the appropriate pond<br />
filter media chamber, lava rock encourages the<br />
growth of friendly bacteria which is essential<br />
for biologically filtering out harmful <strong>to</strong>xins and<br />
creating the conditions for clean and clear<br />
pond water.<br />
