Aquaforte Ultrasieve 3 Three Inlets Complete Range

UltraSieve filters are the most reliable pre-filters on the market. This is partly due to the simple design, with just one moving part. The pre-filter is not self-cleaning, but it is very easy to maintain. Open the slide valve and the debris can be washed away. The UltraSieve pre-filters have a stainless steel filter element that never needs to be replaced. Thanks to the triangular stainless steel rods at a 7° angle, the water falls directly through the sieve, but the debris remains. A major advantage of this principle is that the debris is truly removed from the water circulation. This is highly beneficial to the water quality, because waste products are no longer polluting the water.

Features:

  • The most efficient pre-filter for (swimming) ponds

  • Reliable! (only one moving part)

  • Stainless steel filter element

  • Waste is directly separated from the water circulation

  • No sound

  • No water loss

  • Waste can be 100% recycled

  • Very easy to maintain

  • Ideal for swimming ponds!

  • Already more than 15 years market leader

 

K_Media-Sinking-50Litre-Bag.jpg

K+ Sinking Media

K+ Sinking Media is ideal for down-flow filters.

Enhance and increase your biological filtration with K+ Sinking Media. 

Moulded with minerals for faster beneficial bacteria development.

 Highest mineral density resulting in the best biofilm growth

To achieve the sinking behaviour of the K+ Sinking it is made with the highest mineral density which means it holds the most potential for biofilm growth and due to its rougher surface it's got very strong mechanical performance as it grips onto particles. It's actually one of our strongest medias but with it being sinking restricts it to certain setups as people rarely use downflow, but if you can find a place where K+ Sinking might work it'll perform incredibly well in both Biological and Mechanical performance.

K1-Media-50L-Sack-CMYK_1.jpg

K1 Moving Bed Technology

 

Moving bed media has many advangates over traditional static bed filters including a huge surface area which is always exposed to maximum oxygen and food for the bacteria, self cleaning media as it tumbles, and the world famous protected surface area, enabling bacteria and higher organisms to dwell in their preferred location inside the media, exposed to oxygen and food, but safe from harmful cleaning practices.

Over the last twenty years there has been a wholesale shift over to moving bed technology in pond filters, and Evolution Aqua were the pioneers.
No one has much experience or has carried out as much research and development into this important area of biological filtration as Evolution Aqua.

Nexus and Eazy Pod use K1 and K1 Micro filter media exclusively, and the filters and filter media are all designed and manufactured in the UK.

 

 

 

K1-Micro-50L-Sack-CMYK.jpg

K1 Micro

K1 Micro borrows from the twenty years of extensive research and development by Evolution Aqua into moving bed filter technology and offers an improvement on existing K1.

  950m2 per m3 Protected Surface Area 

  Increased protection for the bio-film 

  Provides mechanical and biological filtration 

  Reduces back pressure on pumps

  Increased flow rate

  Ideal for use in bead filters, conventional pond filters, marine and freshwater aquarium filters

 

K_Media-50Litre-Floating-Bag-CMYK_1.jpg

K+Media

K+Media is designed and manufactured in the UK by Evolution Aqua.
This advanced media, with its innovative design, and class leading surface area provides enhanced biological and mechanical filtration.

 As Evolution Aqua extrude K+Media, Minerals and Enzymes are added to the raw material.
The result of this process, unique to Evolution Aqua, is a filtration media that not only outperforms most of its competitors due to its large protected surface area, but also answers the problem of how to speed up the time taken to mature your filter.With a new shape and profile, K+Media has also been designed to have an increased and class leading surface area, meaning an overall surface area of 1,350m2 per m3.More importantly for biological filtration, the protected surface area of K+Media is 1,025m2 per m3.This allows a stable bio-film to form and remain intact when used in moving bed biological filtration, as in the new Nexus+.

The shape of K+Media optimises the amount of “quiet zones” within the media where a stable bio-film can develop.Whilst K+Media keeps the integral profile of K1 Media at its core, there is an extra layer of cells and fins around the outside of each piece that enable microscopic organisms such as Rotifers and Vorticella to thrive.This is an additional benefit as competitor media do not have such “quiet zones” that would allow these higher lifeforms of filter feeders to develop.The bacteria and organisms that form within the bio-film ensure the media delivers optimum levels of biological filtration in the moving bed, which has been proven filtration technology for many years in the fishkeeping hobby.

Evolution Aqua Tempest Filter

The Tempest Filter is an innovative polishing system for ponds that will help to deliver crystal clear, healthy water. Designed to be used in conjunction with most filtration systems, the Tempest offers additional mechanical and biological filtration. The Evolution Aqua Tempest Filter can also be used on quarantine systems or as a standalone filter on smaller ponds. The Evolution Aqua Tempest Pond Filter is easy to install and is simple and quick to clean, by way of a unique, patent pending air syphon design. During the cleaning process, air is drawn into the filter as it empties which causes the water to agitate, effectively cleaning the K+ Media.

Evolution Aqua Surge Filter

The Evolution Aqua Surge Filter is an innovative filter that will help to deliver crystal clear, healthy water for ponds up to 5,000 Litres. There are no dirty sponges or foams to clean so you get to keep your hands dry, giving you more time to enjoy your pond. As pond water is pumped up through the Surge Filter the K+ Media becomes a mechanical barrier that traps debris as it flows through. 

  • Keep your hands dry

  • Foam free, easy self-cleaning technology.

  • More time to enjoy your pond

  • Reduces filter cleaning and maintenance.

  • Crystal clear and healthy water

  • Enhanced filtration with K+ Media and integrated UVC.

  • Air Clean Technology

 

Zeolite 10ltr (SuperFish)

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 number one killer of pond fish, maintaining a health level of ammonia within in your ponds ecosystem is essential, and this product can aid in this process. As it absorbs the ammonia, soaking in salt overnight will release the entrapped ammonia enabling it 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 entrapped ammonia will be released back into your system.

 

Oase-Hel-X-13-Bio-Media-768x768.jpeg.webp

Oase Hel-X 13 Bio Media

The Oase Hel-X 13 bio media breaks down nutrients and pollutants extremely effectively using the fluidised bed method. The latest development of this filter medium impresses with a sensational surface area of 955 m² per m³ and an extremely large, protected colonisation surface for microorganisms of 806 m² per m³. 25 litres of Hel-X 13 can break down 170 g of fish food per day. Suitable for removing toxins such as ammonium, ammonia, nitrite and nitrate. The new Hel-X media are white in colour. They gradually turn brownish in colour so that the degree of colonisation is clearly visible. Hel-X 13 tower packings are particularly effective and cost-effective, and the medium does not need to be cleaned in combination with drum pre-separation.

K+ Filter Media

K+ Filter Media is designed and manufactured in the UK by Evolution Aqua. This advanced media, with its innovative design, and class leading surface area provides enhanced biological and mechanical filtration. As Evolution Aqua extrude K+ Media, Minerals and Enzymes are added to the raw material. The result of this process, unique to Evolution Aqua, is a filtration mediathat not only out performs most of it’s competitors due to its large protected surface area, but also answers the problem of how to speed up the time taken to mature your filter.

Plastic media, for use in biological pond filters – specifically in moving bed bio reactors, was pioneered by Evolution Aqua, some 20 years ago. In recent years, other plastic media have come onto the market, usually with the aim of trying to get more and more surface area. However, one drawback to using plastic media has always been the time it takes to establish a stablebiofilm – essential for good filtration.After many years of research, Evolution Aqua have now developed a new media that not only gives class leading surface area, but also overcomes the problem of long maturation times.Minerals added for faster filter maturationDuring the extrusion process, Evolution Aqua add a range of minerals, along with magnesium, calcium, enzymes and salt to the raw material that is used to manufacture K+Media. The result means that K+Media will mature much faster than many other types of media.

Pumice Stone Filter Media

Pumice stone Filter Media is now being used extensively as an alternative to traditional koi pond filter media in trickle filters and trickle towers .Pumice stone Filter Media is inert and rapidly colonises with beneficial bacteria which help cleanse the pollutants. It is highly porous making it the ideal media for biological filters of all kinds. Efficient biological filtration depends on the media of choice having an adequate specific surface area (SSA), adequate voiding and water retention time. Pumice Stone Filter media has a massive surface area and is therefore ideal in this application. It can be used as a direct replacement to other ceramic based filter media.

Alfagrog.png

Alfagrog

Alfagrog is a volcanic rock, proven to be a successful filter media as it ideal for the colonization of beneficial bacteria. The porous composition of this media allows the bacteria to multiply in abundance over a short period of time. The sharp edges of this natural rock require careful handling, and it is best situated in the last chamber of your filter, as you would not want your Koi rubbing against it! Remember to wear protective gloves whilst cleaning.

Why is it so effective:The key to effective biological filtration is choosing media with the highest surface area possible to allow beneficial bacteria to colonise and remove waste from the water. Alfagrog has an extremely high surface area by volume compared with other types of filter media on the market.Alfagrog is very inert and soon colonises with beneficial bacteria. Alfagrog is made of a highly porous material that contains many thousands of tiny pockets in which bacteria can thrive making in an ideal material for biological filtersIts only draw back is its sharp on the hands when cleaning so please wear gloves..

Kusuri-Lithaqua.jpeg.webp

Kusuri Lithaqua

Kusuri Lithaqua is a natural calcified seaweed. A pH buffer that can last a number of years. Lithaqua is a marine mineral sometimes referred to as coral, however it is calcified seaweed, high in trace elements and carbonates. Ideal for use in tanks and filter bays. Average particule size is 2-4mm. Modern filters contain many varied plastic media. These provide good support for bacteria, but Lithaqua goes one stage further. Not only do beneficial bacteria draw nutrients from the media, the media being of porous construction has a huge surface area up to 20 times greater than most plastic media. However the main advantage of Lithaqua is the high level of Carbonates which will improve carbonate alkalinity in soft water. It neutralizes low acid pH and reduces pH swings. It will keep the pH above 7, negating the use of quick fix short term pH buffers.

Dosage:

  • 1kg of Kusuri Lithaqua to 100 gallons (454 litres) of pond water.

  • 5kg of Kusuri Lithaqua to 500 gallons (2273 litres) of pond water.

  • 10kg of Kusuri Lithaqua to 1000 gallons (4546 litres) of pond water.

  • 20kg of Kusuri Lithaqua to 2500 gallons (11365 litres) of pond water.
