Koi Filter
Using The Right Koi Filter
An extremely important thing to control when raising Koi fish is giving them the proper filtration in a
pond environment.
Koi fish are more sensitive to the quality of the water then some other fish and
therefore need more consideration when it comes to some of the equipment
like filers.
A pond filter helps to control the biological balance in the pond system.It is
the job of the filter to remove the waste that the Koi produce. In the wild fish
waste is removed because of the volume of the water in the area.
Fish waste is also removed by the water’s current. When fish are in a
contained environment they need to have this natural function supplied for
them.
Most of the pond filters available have a mechanical and biological function.
The mechanical function cleans particles from the water. Gravity and the flow
of the water drag the solid waste out of the Koi’s pond water. These particles
become trapped in the filter and are then cleaned out by the pond owner during
the regular maintenance of the pond....... Click here to read more about koi
