| Emperor Aquatics BioPRO filter systems are designed specially for a koi or fishpond. This external filter features unique Bio Cell media a neutrally buoyant, "high impact" polystyrene media that provides the needed surface area to support healthy colonies of aerobic nitrifying bacteria. BioPRO 4000 delivers efficient biological filtering with minimal labor for fishponds up to 4,000 gallons.
Optimum Filtering & Backwash
BioPRO is a biological filter not mechanical and must be positioned after a solid waste capturing filter, such as a pre-filter or skimmer. The heart of BioPRO is the Bio Cell media which after initial start-up (4-6 weeks) becomes home to colonies of "aerobic" nitrifying bacteria.
While BioPRO is not a mechanical filter, it will trap solid waste that must be flushed from the filter. The key is to keep the media as free of rotting solid waste as possible and therefore routine cleaning (bi-weekly) is essential. To backwash, simply shut the pump off, switch the multi-port valve to backwash, re-start the pump and watch the solids flush from the filter.
