Ponds can be effected by various factors such as unconsumed fish food, decomposing vegetation and fish waste. If these pollutants are allowed to accumulate, in time they will become harmful to your fish. The use of a biological filter will remove these toxins (nitrate, ammonia) and provide good quality water with the additional benefit of reducing algae growth.

What we liked:
Great value for money. Very well made, excellent quality. It has many of the features of more expensive filters including a high outlet so half the filter can be buried if needed, provided the cleaning drain outlet is not used.
Less than ideal:
Based on the price point, not much. the features match the price.
