Fish Pond Filters 

Welcome to our website. We are glad you stopped by. It is our sincere belief that, on these web pages, you will may able to find great deals and low prices on many different types of fish pond filters from many different name brand manufacturers. Finding the right pond filter, just like the pond pump, can truly make all the difference between having a pond that is a lot of work to maintain and one that is easily maintained and keeps your fish happy and keeps your water sparkling clean, and ecologically balanced.

How important is the pond filter?  Well, let's put it this way.  The pond filter is critical to a well maintained and balanced pond.  It is essential. This is especially true if you plan on adding Koi or any other fish to your pond. Koi Pond Filters are dual purpose. First, they serve as a mechanical filter (removing dirt from the pond) and second, they serve as a biological filter (providing the proper environment for the development of nitrifying bacteria).

Your pond filter and pump are the most important pieces of pond equipment. It is not an option but rather a necessity.  Pond fish just like any other animal, excrete waste that would be toxic if it accumulated in their bodies. Your pond filter helps eliminate the buildup of these toxic wastes.

Koi Pond Filters serve a dual purpose. It serves as a mechanical filter (removing dirt from the pond) and serves as a biological filter (providing the proper environment for the development of nitrifying bacteria).

There are two main types of pond filters in use for backyard ponds. These are the external fish pond filter and the submersed fish pond filter.

External Fish Pond Filter: These external pond filters are mainly used in larger ponds. The external filter removes water from the pond which is then pushed (or pulled) through a series of different levels or baffles of filter media and recirculated back to the pond. These external filters are usually more effective and easier to maintain than submerged filters. They are usually filled with porous or plastic stone biological media underneath.The biggest advantage of external pond filters is the improvement in ease of filter maintenance. Having the pond filter outside of the pond makes the unit a lot easier to clean. It should also be known that the external pond filter supports the largest fish loads.

Submersed Fish Pond Filter: The submerged fish pond filter is perhaps the most popular choice among backyard pond enthusiasts. It is the less expensive of the two and is very easy to use.  The submersed pond filter is very versatile. This means that these filters are not limited to only keeping your pond water clean. They can also be used in conjunction with other water features in your pond such as spitters, water fountains, and sprays. These filters are filled with a mixture of filter media for different types of filtration including chemical, mechanical and biological filtration. The main disadvantage is that since this of  type of pond filter is submersed in the water you will need to stand in the pond to retrieve it depending on where it is situated when you decide to clean it.

The final decision as to which filter is your best choice is up to you.  But, at least here, you are presented with many manufacturers and suppliers from which to choose.
