Eheim Pro Wet / Dry Canister Filter 2229
As an external filter the Eheim Professionel Wet/Dry Filter is the first filter to offer the perfect technology of a "breathing" alternating contact with the filter medium. The bacteria colonies are regularly flushed and aerated. This makes ideal conditions for considerably accelerated decomposition of nearly all solved pollutants.The Eheim Professionel wet/dry filters offer efficiency surpassing that of a tricle filter.The water movement within the filter is bi-directional allowing for extended contact time between bacteria cononies, oxygen and toxinx, which are thus decomposed much more rapidly than in a habitual filter. Quicker decomposition of pollutants than with conventional pot filters: ammonium by 73%, nitrite by 67% quicker. Exchange of oxygen and CO2 is accomplished by means of displacement through the specially designed breathing tube. The water output pulsates as the filter fills and empites, acheiving a wavelike action. Integrated interval control for reliable operation. Oxygen-rich water in constant quality. Only filtered water is released into circulation. 2 years warranty How to start the Siphon on the Professional Wet/Dry Models 2227, 2327, 2229, 2329When first setting up your filter, NEVER fill the canister up with water.Rinse the Ehfisubstrat and place the media baskets in, close up the canister with NO water in it. Open the tap connector of the intake pipe (IN) and apply suction briefly at the breather pipe.The filter will automatically fill up with water. After it finishes filling, open the tap connector of the outlet pipe (OUT) and proceed to plug the unit into an electrical outlet. The filter will automatically start up.When you need to service the filter, wait until it starts draining, shut off the tap connector of the intake pipe (IN), wait until the canister empties of all it`s water and the flow in the outlet pipe stops. Proceed to shut off the tap connector of the outlet pipe (OUT) and then unplug it from the electrical outlet.; By doing this, you preserve the siphon in the tubing, don`t have to carry around a canister full of water and wont make the mistake of leaving water in the canister.NOTE: If all the above steps have been followed and the filter is making noise but has not started up, close both tap connectors unplug the unit from the electrical outlet and lift the double tap connector unit up, this will drain the water out of the breather tube. Close and lock the double tap connector unit back onto the canister. Open both the intake (IN) and outlet pipe (OUT) tap connectors plug it back into electrical outlet.
Emperor 280 Power Filter - up to 50 Gallon
The Emperor 280 Filter is designed with advanced technology that effectively and efficiently provides all three necessary aquarium filtration elements - mechanical, chemical, and most significantly, biological filtration for both freshwater and saltwater aquariums. The Heavy Duty Emperor Filter Cartridge provides superior mechanical and chemical filtration. Mechanical filtration traps solid debris like uneaten fish food and fish waste in the dense microfibers. For chemical filtration, each cartridge is packed with Black Diamond Premium Activated Carbon. The filter also includes a Refillable Filter Media Container that can hold an bonus amount of Black Diamond Carbon, White Diamond Ammonia Neutralizing Crystals, Diamond Blend, or most other types of aquarium filter media. The patented BIO-Wheel is the undisputed best biological filter-the ideal culture site for the growth and proliferation of beneficial bacteria responsible for nitrification in aquatic environments. The BIO-Wheel never clogs and never needs to be replaced. The Emperor 280 Filter features a revolutionary two pump design. They send water in two different directions through the filter to provide balanced filtration. The Flow Pump routes water through the filter cartridge which provides mechanical and chemical filtration. The BIO-Pump pressurizes and send a stream of prefiltered water through the spray bar to power-drive the BIO-Wheel. The filter also features an adjustable Spray Bar Knob that can be turned up or down to change angle or water flow when feeding. As the spray-bar driven BIO-Wheel turns, it contacts water and air, providing the bacteria with oxygen they need to grow. Because it is a wet/dry biological filter the BIO-Wheel provides bacteria with as much as 30,000 time more oxygen that any underwater biological filtration. More oxygen means more bacteria working hard to keep your tank ammonia-free and sparkling clean. The Emperor 280 filter has a flow rate of 280 gph and is recommended for aquariums up to 40 gallons. It includes a BIO-wheel, a refillable media container, and cartridge.

Pondmaster 1000 Filter
The Pondmaster 1000 garden pond filter is designed for ease of use and reliablity. It can be used with any submersible pump with a flow rate of up to 500 gph. This filter also has a modular design allowing the units to be connected together for larger ponds with more biological load becuase of higher fish population or abundant plant growth. It can also be used in as small as 6 inches of water. The heavy-duty handle and quick disconnect coupling make removal from the pond simple. The coupling also has garden hose threads for adaptability. The filter is designed to connect to the intake of the submerged pump by use of a supplied flexible vinyl hose.
