Filter Brush 800mm x 200mm

Enhance your pond's mechanical filtration with our professional-grade filter brush. This heavy-duty 400mm long x 200mm diameter brush is designed for superior pre-filtration in koi ponds, ornamental fish ponds, and commercial aquaculture systems, trapping debris before it reaches your biological filter.

Also available in 400 x 200mm

What is a Filter Brush?

A filter brush is a cylindrical mechanical filter media featuring thousands of densely packed nylon bristles that capture solid waste, leaves, and debris as water flows through. It serves as the first line of defence in multi-stage filtration systems, significantly reducing maintenance on downstream filters.

Filter Brush 800 x 200mm

Key Benefits

  • Superior Debris Capture: Dense 200mm diameter bristles effectively trap particles while maintaining excellent water flow
  • Compact & Efficient: 400mm length fits most standard pre-filter chambers and pump housings
  • Protects Bio-Filters: Removes solids before they clog biological filter media, extending its lifespan
  • Easy Maintenance: Simply remove, rinse clean, and reinstall - no replacement media required
  • Durable Construction: UV-resistant, rot-proof materials withstand harsh pond environments year-round
  • Versatile Application: Ideal for gravity-fed systems, pump chambers, and vortex pre-filters

How to Use

  1. Installation: Place brushes vertically or horizontally in your pre-filter chamber, pump chamber, or vortex settlement tank. Stack multiple brushes for increased filtration capacity
  2. Positioning: For best results, install where water enters your filtration system. Water should flow through the bristles, allowing debris to become trapped
  3. Spacing: Leave adequate space between brushes to facilitate water flow while maximizing contact with bristles
  4. Maintenance: Check weekly during heavy debris seasons (spring/autumn). Remove brushes and rinse with pond water or hose until clean
  5. Deep Cleaning: For stubborn organic buildup, soak in pond-safe filter cleaner then rinse thoroughly before reinstalling

Applications

  • Koi Ponds: Essential for protecting expensive bio-media from fish waste and excess food
  • Ornamental Ponds: Captures leaves, twigs, and organic debris before it breaks down
  • Aquaculture: Handles high bioload in commercial fish farming operations

Perfect for serious pond keepers and aquaculture professionals who demand reliable, low-maintenance mechanical filtration.
