OASE BioSmart 5000 Gravity Filter (MPN 56929)

The BioSmart Gravity Filters are a compact filtration system designed for medium ponds or ponds with moderate biological load. The filters utilize a multi-stage mechanical and biological process, allowing water to pass through filter foams that foster the growth of beneficial bacteria. This conversion process transforms harmful ammonia and nitrites into nitrates, which support the plant life in the pond. The innovative flow-through design of the filter maximizes oxygenation, while the high-surface area filter foams provide excellent biological filtration capabilities. The filter is designed with distinct zones that encourage the settlement of different types of beneficial bacteria responsible for different phases of the nitrogen cycle. This promotes the efficient conversion of ammonia in the pond. The filter also comes equipped with advanced features such as a built-in cleaning indicator and a water temperature display. These features make it easy for users to know when the filter needs cleaning and monitor the water temperature at all times. Convenient cleaning handles allow for easy maintenance without the need to remove or manually unclog the filter foams. The filter also has a sludge drain that can be opened to remove coarse debris from the unit. For optimal results and guaranteed clear water, it is recommended to use the BioSmart Gravity Filters with an appropriately sized OASE pump and UV clarifier. The product also comes with a 3-year manufacturer's warranty, ensuring customer satisfaction and protection.
