For 50 years, fishkeeping enthusiasts have looked to the Tetra name for products and solutions that add ease and beauty to their homes. Whether you're an experienced hobbyist or just starting out, Tetra has everything you need – from a large variety of quality fish food and innovative equipment to test kits and decor.

The TetraPond Waterfall Filter allows you to easily create a beautiful waterfall for your pond. This easy-to-assemble filter provides both mechanical and biological filtration and can be easily hidden with rocks and pond decoration. Benefits of the TetraPond Waterfall Filter include increased aeration for your pond and cleaner, healthier pond water.

Pond water is pumped into the bottom of the filter and rises upwards through a fiber mat, which traps suspended dirt and debris. Beneficial bacteria will naturally colonize on the rough surfaces of the lava rock or other bio-media (not included) and convert harmful pollutants in the pond water into relatively harmless nitrates. Nitrates are absorbed by aquatic plants and can also be removed from the pond through partial water changes. This process is known as the nitrogen cycle.

TetraPond's new open-profile bio-activators offer superior filtration performance over closed bio-media and lava rock. These bio-activators have been perfected and used in the commercial aquaculture industry, where demanding filtration is required due to extreme environmental conditions. The advanced technological design of the bio-activators provides a large active surface area for the beneficial bacteria to colonize.

The Waterfall Filter creates beautiful waterfalls quickly and easily. The mesh bag allows for the addition of bio-media (6-8 liters of Bio-Activators) for effective filtration for ponds up to 1000 gallons. Easy to install and blend into the landscape, the Waterfall Filter can be used with pumps ranging from 500 to 4500 GPH. It comes with a 2-year limited warranty.

In summary, the TetraPond Waterfall Filter is a versatile and effective solution for creating a stunning waterfall feature in your pond. Its easy installation, mechanical and biological filtration, and ability to blend seamlessly into the landscape make it an excellent choice for both experienced and novice pond enthusiasts.
