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 />
