![]() Clear Stream Pond Filter Pressurized Pond Filtration, The Benefits: *Units can be conveniently positioned below the level of water delivery *Can be partially buried in the ground for minimal visual impact *Easy to clean, although this filter does not have a backwash feature, it comes with a handle for easy media removal for simple cleaning. Also note that many "backflusing features" do not fully clean a filter and in fact leave "dead" spots in the filter media, which over time lessen the effectiveness of the filter (I have personally used many of these filters from the Tetra to the Pentair, with with just these results when only backflushed). *Large diameter inlet and outlet ports. Suitable for use with low pressure/low voltage pumps *Versatile, multi-stage (1/2", 3/4, 1", 1-1/4") hosetails, to take all common sizes of hose *Ready to use, all media and connections included *Large Bio capacity, the 1200 holds up to 5 liters of filter media *Complete and effective filtration with mechanical sponge filter and biological media *Multiple units can be linked together to increase filtration capacity *The Clear Stream Pond Filter also makes AN EXCELLENT and inexpensive aquarium canister filter when connected to a power head water pump, with more bio capacity than most canister filters designed for aquariums and simpler start ups. Quite bluntly with a little DIY ability this filter makes a vastly better canister filter for aquariums than most canister filters!

We also sell Volcanic Rock that although is not the exact Volcanic pumice that comes with this filter, I have used it successfully (I generally break it into smaller "chunks" with a hammer for this filter). Please see this listing: Volcanic Rock Aquarium/Pond Filter Media Although we do not sell the UV Filters (as per the reason stated below) We do sell the replacement UV Bulbs: * Clear Stream 1200 UV 9 watt bulb- $15.99 *Clear Stream 600 UV 5 watt bulb- $14.99 We do NOT sell UV/ Filter units as we have found (from many years experience maintaining ponds), that Filters with self contained UVs DO NOT work as well as a separate UV unit. An important reason is water flow rate and contact time. With a separate unit you can control the flow rate thru your UV much better than a self contained filter/UV, effecting a much better contact time and germicidal kill rate. The UV Sterilizers that come built into many pond filters including the otherwise excellent Clear Stream Pond Filter are basically ineffective. I personally only recommend the units that come without the UV Sterilizers (unlike a few less honest pond supply retailers that sell these.). The problem is that most come with UVs ranging from 5 to 18 watts, the 9 watt is being the most common, so when you install this filter to a pump that moves 2000 gph through a 9 watt UV you are effecting a 222 gph per watt rating which is TOTALLY useless (you need a flow rate UNDER 40 gph per watt!!).
