The filtration process is as follows: Mechanical Filtration - First your water is passed through a coarse sponge to remove any floating dirt and debris. Biological Filtration - In this stage the water passes through very porous volcanic rock, which is the perfect home for good bacteria vital to the health of your fish. UV Filtration - This Unique style canister has a UV bulb built-in. While water is exposed to UV rays in the filter, harmful bacteria, as well as water born algae, are destroyed resulting in a happier healthier pond that is crystal clear. The cleaning of your Pond filter is easy. Just flick the switch and your pond filter will backwash. The benefit to this system is that you do not have to remove the media, which creates a mess and minimise the disturbance of the beneficial bacteria. 2 + 1 YEARS AUSTRALIAN WARRANTY
