WARNING! PONDS ARE DANGEROUS TO SMALL CHILDREN!
NEVER LEAVE CHILDREN UNSUPERVISED NEAR A POND.
1.FEATURES
ank you for purchasing your new Pro Series Waterfall. You now own one of the most versatile waterfall units
ever designed. It has a number of features that set it apart from the rest:
(1) Waterfall Box with compact capacity for minimal turbulence
and room for biological ltration media
(2) Stepped Barb tting with diverter (Models 1000 & 2000 only)
(3) Biological ltration models feature either polyester Debris
Filter Pads or BioMatrix biological lter media in a convenient
open mesh media bag to biologically treat your pond
(4a) 2” Bulkhead Fitting Assembly (Model 3000)
(4b) 2” Barbed Fitting (Model 3000)
•AllPro Series Waterfall units are designed to be strong enough
to resist collapsing from the pressure of soil and water around
them, even when empty.
•ey easily support the weight of stones placed on the upper
rim to conceal it.
•Large capacity of the Waterfall Box means it will hold more
media, providing greater surface area for bacterial colonization,
and therefore more ltering capacity.
2.HOW BIOLOGICAL FI LTRATION WORKS in the
Pro Series BioMatrix Filter and Falls:
Fish extract nutrition from what they eat and excrete what’ s left back into the water column in the form of
ammonia, which can be very toxic even at low concentrations.Your Biological Filter and Falls is specifically
designed to maximize the natural processes that remove ammonia from the water.Water pumped into the
Biological Filter and Falls brings the dissolved wastes into contact with bacterial colonies on the many
surfaces of the filter media. These colonies digest, or metabolize, the ammonia. Some types of bacteria turn
it into nitrites; others take the still toxic nitrites and dissolved oxygen and turn them into less toxic nitrates,
a natural fertilizer that is easily taken up by plants.When the proper balance of fish, plants and aeration is
reached, your Biological Filter and Falls will remove all of the ammonia and nitrite in your pond and since
the bacteria work best when undisturbed, you don’t have to clean it for the entire season. Even better, your
Biological Filter and Falls makes it easy to find that balance by helping to aerate the water as it flows over
the waterfall lip and by providing a great spot to place floating plants – right in the top of the Biological
Filter and Falls itself. The Pro1000 Biological Filter and Falls can handle water flows from 250 to 950
gallons per hour, the Pro2000 Biological Filter and Falls can handle water flows from 950 to 2000 gallons
per hour, & the Pro3000 Biological Filter and Falls can handle 1000 to 3000 gallons per hour so they work
with a great variety of pump sizes.
