Waterco Aquabiome Filter

PLEASE CALL FOR PRICE AND AVALIBILITY.

The Waterco Aquabiome filter is designed for ponds, water gardens and aquaculture systems. It provides mechanical and biological filtration in a single housing. Its ability to support dense populations of nitrifying bacteria and its reliability and easy maintenance, makes Aquabiome especially suitable for high density recirculation systems.

Effective
Excellent Nitrification and Mechanical filtration
Efficient
Hydraulically efficient filter design, balanced slotted laterals to maximize water flow and filtration.
Durable
Corrosion resistant and UV stabilised for outdoor installation.
Air-Backwash
Air assisted hydraulic backwash, saving time and water.
Superior Quality
Aquabiome fiberglass filters embody the latest in fiberglass winding technology.
