The zeolite filter has two modes of action:

  1. It binds ammonium/ammonia and organic substances on the surface of the filter material (zeolite). These are absorbed by bacteria, creating a bacterial lawn. To prevent the filter from becoming overgrown over time, the filter bed must be rinsed regularly. To do this, the filter bed is agitated daily with the supply of air so that excess bacteria and sludge are flushed away.
    In aquariums with nutrient deficiencies, the excess bacteria should be introduced into the aquarium as bacterioplankton.
    For eutrophic (polluted) aquariums, the zeolite filter drain should terminate before the skimmer so that it skims the bacteria, thereby removing nutrients from the system. Discharge into a fleece filter is also possible. 
  2. The natural mineral zeolite acts as an ion exchanger to bind heavy metals such as lead, zinc and others.

It is important to replace 2/3 of the filter material approximately every two months.

Features of the zeolite filter:

  • suitable for a wide range of materials
  • effective retention of filter material by inlet and outlet sieve
  • zeolite filling with very high clinoptilolite content
  • and of course made-in-germany, manufactured from German quality acrylic material

Installation of the zeolite filter:

  • in the filter sump
  • external (next to, below or above the aquarium)
  • hang-on (outside the aquarium)
  • hang-in (inside the filter sump)
  • wall mounting

Required accessories:

  • water inlet with sufficient pressure (bypass from aquarium main pump or own pump)
  • time-controlled air supply for the rinsing process
