Reactor with screens for filter material (quartz sand). The water flows from the bottom to the top (upstream) through the filter. On the sand grains bacteria are growing, that oxidize harmful substances, for example nitrification. The water flow is adjusted with the inlet ball valve.

Required accessories:
With a bypass from the aquarium main pump or with an extra pump the feed water arrives to the system. The water flow is adjusted in that way, that the complete filter material is in motion.

The out-coming and cleaned water flows back to the aquarium.
