Media Grids
A most useful aid for anyone building their own filtration system these can be placed at a level that provides a void of water underneath the media itself and keeps the media out of any debris that may have gathered in the filter.
It supports the media and is quite robust and is a must really can be fixed together and cut to size using simply a fine toothed wood saw or angle grinder.

The holes are 18mm x 18mm so no they wouldn't be small enough to stop K1 media

Japanese Zeolite
Zeolite reduces the Ammonia in your pond creating a healthier environment for your Koi. It works by trapping and absorbing Ammonia, extracting it from your ponds water.
Ammonia is the nuber one killer of pond fish, maintaining a health level of ammonia within in your ponds ecosystem is essential, Zeolite can aid in this process.
As Zeolite absorbs the ammonia, soaking in salt overnight will release the entrapped ammonia enabelling the zeolite to be reused. However, should you need to treat your pond with salt or other medications you must remove the Zeolite from your filter system as the entapped ammonia will be release back into your system.
This Japanese Zeolite is supplied in large pieces in 20kg bags
Please Note: You will need the media bags to put the zeolite in with this product.
The Bacteria House Media is a ceramic that has been heat treated at 1300°c for 60hrs. This tremendous amount of heat causes the ceramic to break its internal bonds thereby creating an extremely porous structure that has a much greater surface to allow very large bacteria populations to colonise within the Media .
Due to the large quantities of tiny holes in the Bacteria House Media, mechanical filtration is also achieved. Large organic solids and decaying matter are degraded at a far greater speed than conventional media.
One of the key elements of the Bacteria House Media is that it reacts in a seemingly ‘electrostatic’ manner with floating organic matter causing an increase in adhesion rate. This produces clear clean water at a rapid rate. Water in its natural state creates multiple bonds with surrounding water molecules creating a cluster. The Bacteria House Media emits FAR infrared rays that break the bonds of the neighbouring water molecules thereby allowing more oxygen to be dissolved in the water.
Filter wool Roll
40m long
80cm wide
10-12mm thick
This filter retention wool will trap particles down to 10 microns, this makes this media an ideal solution for use for final collection before your water is returned to the pond. It is also an ideal solution for power filters.
This media is easily cleaned or can be used as a dissposable media removing the necessity for regular cleaning.
Foam Cubes
These Foam Cubes are designed to fit over a pump cage to act as a pre-filter and will also extend the maintenance period.
8 Inch Cube Foam Pre-Filter Sponge
Black Knight Filter brushes
Black Knight Filter brushes are designed as a pre-filter for removing coarse waste and/or as a biological filter medium. Any design of filtration chamber will suit these brushes and they are easily removed for cleaning.
Black Knight filter brushes are made from the very highest quality Hydrotek polypropylene twisted into two stainless steel wires to form a cylindrical brush with a loop at one end for hanging. The other end is capped with a plastic knob for safety
Black Knight brushes are by far the most efficient and user-friendly product for removing suspended particles from your pond water.
Kusuri Lithaqua
Kusuri Lithaqua is a marine mineral with a high content of minerals, trace elements and carbonates. It brings them into your pond and thereby adjusts the mineral balance and improves the water quality. Use it as pond substrate for bacteria to grow on and for fish to play in, or use it as a filter medium.
Modern multi-chamber filters contain mainly plastic media. Those are excellent supports for bacteria but they do not add anything to water quality. It is important to fill at least one filter chamber (preferably the last chamber) with Kusuri Lithaqua. It provides an enormous surface area for bacteria 10 to 20 times more than most plastic filter media) and provides the bacteria with essential nutrients.
Kusuri Lithaqua neutralises acid pH and helps to restore carbonate alkalinity.
Lithaqua is a marine mineral high in trace elements and carbonates, ideal for raising KH values. A superb filter media of porous construction, allowing a huge surface area for the growth of beneficial bacteria.
Modern filter chambers contain many and varied plastic media, these provide good support – but Lithaqua goes one stage further. Not only do the beneficial bacteria draw on nutrients from the mineral support, the media has a massive surface area up to 20 times greater than most plastic media.
Lithaqua is a biological media not intended for mechanical stages.
Use Lithaqua in a clean water chamber after mechanical removal of waste. Lithaqua is far more efficient than crushed oyster shells, and the high level of carbonates will improve carbonate alkalinity in soft water regions, neutralising low acid pH and buffer swings in pH.
Burtons Far-Infrared Shower Media
Burtons far infrared shower media is produced using a blend of high-quality ceramic material and minerals which are fired at extreme temperatures creating an extremely porous structure. With each individual piece of media having the surface area of 2.76ft making it highly efficient in allowing the cultivation of nitrifying and denitrifying bacteria. Our far infrared media is versatile and lightweight and Ph-neutral and can be used in many applications like: Bakki showers, traditional multi-bay systems, trickle filters. Our infrared media will improve water quality, clarity and the overall wellbeing of the pond. Size of media: Length 155mm. Thickness 35mm. 154 pieces per box. Weight per box: 16kg.
• 2.76ft Surface area per piece.
• Versatile, lightweight and Ph-Neutral.
• Improve water quality and Clarity.
Bacteria Home media
Bacteria home is a high-quality filter medium that is made from mineral rock. This porous rock is baked at a very high temperature. It is ideally suited for a bakki shower, but can also be used in other filters.
The microscopic pores immediately ensure a rapid growth of high concentrations of bacteria, which greatly improves the water quality. The bacteria filter harmful substances such as nitrate, nitrite and ammonia from the water.
The material is very porous and slightly rough on the surface, so that the water that is sprayed over it is, as it were, polished. Because colonies of anaerobic (low-oxygen) bacteria can nest in the pores of this filter media, which take care of the conversion of nitrate to nitrogen gas, you could prefer this type of filter media to non-porous filter media.
Two types of bacteria are involved in the aerobic (oxygen-rich) conversion. The Nitrosomonas bacterium converts ammonia into nitrite and the Nitrobacter bacterium then converts nitrite into nitrate. Although nitrate does not immediately pose a health risk to fish, high doses are not desirable. High nitrate levels promote strong algae growth; this mainly occurs in the spring because the bacteria have not yet multiplied sufficiently.
Anaerobic bacteria are used to convert nitrate into nitrogen gas. This process can only take place in the absence of oxygen, i.e. at places in the filter media where little or no oxygen is present and can reach. The first step in this process is the reversal of the nitrification process. Nitrate is converted back into nitrite. The second step of the denitrification is the conversion of nitrite into nitrogen gas. (N2). This gas can then be released without causing any further damage to the environment.
Bacteria Home also provides an increased mineral and redox value. It also brings considerably more oxygen into the water than, for example, aerated bottom drains. Bacteria Home improves your water quality up to 16 times more effectively than aerated underwater filtration.
