Filtreco Trickle Tower
Filtreco Trickle Tower Filters
The Filtreco Trickle Tower (Bakki Shower) Medium and Large The most effective way to turn harmful, dissolved elements (such as proteins, ammonium, nitrite, etc.) in the pond water into harmless compounds.
The more fish swimming in a pond, the more waste. Aerobic bacteria (bacteria that occur in an oxygen rich environment) break this waste to nitrate, a substance that is less harmful to water quality.
To keep Koi optimal health is good water quality is very important. In a pond with Koi optimum water values will feel better and the growth and development of fish stimulated.
The water comes up in the instroombak of Filtreco Trickle Tower filter inside where it is distributed to one spray tube of 50mm or63mm. Among them are so-called 1 drop units mounted which are provided with a perforated bottom, for the water to flow through easily. The drop of the user units to be filled with a filter media of choice. The units are also equipped with
air holes through which oxygen is easily pulled inwards. Optimal oxygen saturation of the water will be accomplished.

Roto Shower Tube
Roto Shower Tube
Using the latest manufacturing processes the Roto Shower Tube Filter’s are designed and manufactured for Koi and Garden Ponds as a main filter or as extra filtration to improve an existing system.
The Roto Shower Tube Filter has a small foot print which makes it an ideal choice where installation space is of a premium. The biological media chamber holds up to 100 litres of Crystal Bio which means there is no loss of filtration performance.
The Roto Shower Filter, is very low maintenance, the water is injected through a spray bar creating increased oxygen levels, this in conjunction with the inovative robust design there is minimal heat loss due to the thermal retention moulding of the filters construction. The Crystal Bio Shower Filter will Help prevent drops in pH and helps to reduce Nitrates.
The Crystal Bio Shower Filter naturaly uses Crystal Bio Media which is an extremely lightweight biological media ideal for showers or trickle filters.
This Crystal Bio Media has up to 10 times the surface area of most plastic media due to the hyper-interconnecting cell structure, not only is Crystal Bio Media Unique, but its also an eco-friendly glass media, heated in excess of 900°C, creating a hyper-connecting glass cell structure.
Two models are available in the range, the Crystal Bio Shower Filter including 100 litres of the Crystal Bio media or the very popular Crystal Bio Shower Sieve Filter including 60 litres of the Crystal Bio media.
The Crystal Bio Shower Filter, is very low maintenance, the water is injected through a spray bar creating increased oxygen levels, this in conjunction with the inovative robust design. There is minimal heat loss due to the thermal retention moulding of the filters construction.
The Crystal Bio housing stands 1225mm high and has an external diamter of 450mm. The Inlet on both models is by means of a 1½” connection and reducing bushes and stepped hosetails are included. The outlet or return is via 3″ pipework under gravity. On the shower model, the waste outlet is blanked off, and when purchased as a sieve version both waste outlet and relevant valves are supplied. The Crystal Bio Sieve filter provides the added benefit of removing waste material before the water enters the biological stage of the shower, adding extra machanical filtration.
Stainless Steel 3 Tier Shower
The Kockney Koi 3 Tier Stainless Steel shower
The Kockney Koi 3 Tier Stainless Steel shower comes with a lid and a tray at the bottom this allows you just to fill the individual tiers with a media of your choice to get it going. The The Kockney Koi 3 Tier Stainless Steel shower can be used with an additional filter to help cope with high stocked Koi ponds and allows you to feed at a higher rate.
By showering the pond water over the media within this Shower system you improve the dissolved oxygen content and help gas off carbon dioxide. A trickle filter’s operating principle is very simple. The water is pumped up and then well distributed across a perforated surface. This causes the water to splash down on the filter medium like a shower. This method causes the water to break up and absorb a great deal of oxygen: ideal for a biological system that demands a high level of oxygen. This is why a trickle filter starts up faster than other filters, such as multi-chamber systems or bead filters. It therefore stands to reason that this is the system of choice for most cultivation farms.
The recommended flow rate to the system is 25,000lph, and the water outlet is through a weir at the bottom, so this needs to be situation at the pond edge to return the water.
Specifications:
- Product Dimensions – 1000mm x 960mm x 410mm
- Recommended Flowrate – 25,000lph
- Media capacity – 60kg – 20kg per tier
Super Shower
Super Shower
The Super Shower is a modular trickle filter that is easy to install and can also be fitted in as an additional filter. Trickle filters are often used in cultivation systems due to their high biological capacity, quick biology start-up and enormous oxygen enrichment of water.
- easy to install into existing systems
- capable of flows up to 20 m3/hr
- small footprint • quick biology start-up
- modular construction • easy to expand
- perfect supplement to Beadfilters
- option of combining filter media (oyster shells, SuperBio, Alfa Grog, etc.)
- module with filter cartridges for use as a standalone filter in small ponds
Trickle filter operating principle:

This causes the water to splash down on the filter medium like a shower. This method causes the water to break up and absorb a great deal of oxygen: ideal for a biological system that demands a high level of oxygen.

SuperShower’s characteristics:
The SuperShower is a modular system. Every chamber module can be stacked on top of another module. This makes it possible to adjust or expand the filter to meet every need.
The water is pumped into the upper chamber. The water is distributed via a perforated plate, creating a perfect shower. The biofilter medium is located below this plate which is completely infiltrated by this shower. The water then flows through the perforated bottom to the next chamber. Since the chambers are not completely filled with filter media, there is a sufficient drop height for the water to redistribute itself and to break up after each chamber.
The lowest chamber also contains biofilter media. However, the bottom of this chamber is solid and the water flows out of this chamber back to the pond via the 3x 110 mm outlets.
