Default what else with an eazy

Hi and hello

Need advice on what else to put with my eazy pod which is pump fed by a blagdon 10000 pump, the pond is 7500 ltrs and although the eazy is dealing well with mechanical side of filteration i need to get some form of biological going on, the pond is above ground so will need to know wether i go pod then your suggestion or the other way round and will i need additional pumps.

Cheers in advance

Colin

Hi Colin

Id go with a fluidised bed filter with coral sand, they are small footprint and great for biological filtering.

Couple of 250L chambers with 150L of fluid K1 in each would be nice and simple.

Hi Colin

If you have a skimmer line you could run it from there on its own, or run it after easy pod as they like cleaner water and the pod would filter alot of this out first.
