  • Processes up to 45.5 oz of fish waste per day
  • Removes ammonia, nitrites, and nitrates from pond water
  • Innovative bypass technology optimizes media movement even at high flow rates
  • Pre-installed aerator bar connects to AquaOxy 450 (sold separately)
  • Aeration enhances biological filtration and keeps biofilm debris-free
  • Integrated sludge drain for easy flushing and maintenance
  • Designed for ProfiClear Premium XL systems
  • 3-year warranty (2-year + 1)
  • Manual

Why Moving Bed Filtration:

Moving bed filtration uses bio-media that tumbles gently in aerated water, providing massive surface area for beneficial bacteria to colonize. These bacteria break down toxic ammonia, nitrites, and nitrates from fish waste—critical for maintaining healthy water in koi ponds. The constant motion keeps bacteria colonies clean and active, maximizing waste processing capacity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How many Moving Bed Modules do I need for my pond?
A: The number of modules depends on your fish load and feeding rate. Each XL Moving Bed Module can process up to 45.5 oz of fish waste per day. If you feed your koi 30 oz of food daily, one module should handle the waste. For heavily stocked show ponds or if you feed more than 45 oz per day, add additional modules. A good rule is to have slightly more filtration capacity than you currently need to accommodate fish growth and seasonal feeding increases.

Q: Do I need to add an AquaOxy 450 air pump?
A: Yes, the AquaOxy 450 air pump (sold separately) is required for optimal performance. The aeration provides oxygen that beneficial bacteria need to thrive and creates the gentle turbulence that keeps the PondPads media moving. This movement prevents dead bacteria buildup and ensures the biofilm stays clean and active. Without proper aeration, the biological filtration efficiency will be significantly reduced.

Q: How do I maintain the Moving Bed Module?
A: Maintenance is simple thanks to the integrated sludge drain. Periodically (typically monthly or as needed), open the sludge drain valve to flush out accumulated debris and waste. The PondPads media itself doesn't need to be removed or cleaned—the constant movement and aeration keep it clean naturally. This hands-off design is one of the major advantages of moving bed filtration compared to traditional filter foam systems.
