Matala Biosteps UV Pond Filters, Biosteps UV Sterilizers & Matala EZ Pond Pump Prefilter
Matala USA Pond Filters, Submersible Pond Pumps & UV Sterilizers For Fish Ponds
In simple terms using an adequate pond filter and pond filter media is a must for any pond keeper if you wish to maintain a healthy pond eco system. The pond filter choice will need to handle the pump flow rate and number of fish stocked. Backyard fish ponds with inferior or inadequate biological pond filters will require more maintenance, such as more frequent water changes, which will disrupt the overall balance of the pond environment. Certain biological pond filters require a lot of water to clean them thoroughly, resulting in disruption to the biological chamber, housing the beneficial bacteria, responsible for converting ammonia into nitrate.

A pond biofilter that is too small for the size of your pond will not adequately remove water toxins and waste solids. Incorrectly specified pond bio filters require more extensive UV sterilizers and the use of pond care chemicals to help control the build up of fish waste and green pond algae. An adequately specified pond filter takes quite a while to bed in and reach a stage where it performs it's function correctly. A proper pond design with a few aquatic plants and not too many fish will supply countless hours of pond keeping enjoyment and significantly reduce the problems encountered by many pond keepers, who have saved a few $ and bought poor quality, less efficient pond bio filters.
Matala Biosteps Gravity Discharge Pond Filters incorporate modern pond filter technology to ensure that the filter performs the function for which you bought it; to keep your pond free from harmful ammonia and to keep the pond water crystal clear. The excellent pond filter media has a large surface area on which beneficial bacteria can colonize.
