EasyPro PBF1800BL Pressurized Bead Filter with Backflush Blower — 1,800 Gallon Max
Purpose-built for water gardens, koi ponds, hybrid ponds, and fish systems up to 1,800 gallons, the EasyPro PBF1800BL combines mechanical and biological filtration in a single pressurized unit. Free-floating debris gets trapped mechanically, while beneficial bacteria colonize the filter's Ultimate Tube Media to break down fish-toxic ammonia — keeping water clear and your fish healthy.
Key Features
- Mechanical and biological filtration in one unit — traps debris while beneficial bacteria break down ammonia
- Built-in backflush blower loosens debris before flushing, making cleaning faster and more thorough than filters without one
- Six-position control head for simple, straightforward backflushing
- Clear section on the backflush waste line so you can visually monitor the cleaning cycle
- Strong, heavy-duty polyethylene filter body
- High-flow media design minimizes back pressure on your pump

Who It's For
Ideal for koi pond and water garden owners who want a properly sized, low-maintenance filtration system.
