## Description

Automatic back-washing mode:When the pump sucks the water from the fish pond to the inlet bin of the micro-filter and flows into the drum, the drum filter net accumulates foreign matter to a certain amount to block, resulting in reduced water output, the inlet bin water level rises, the liquid level sensing switch automatically opens, concurrently,the controller opens the back-washing mode。1： Put the water pump into the fish pond，connect the outlet pipe with the micro-filter inlet pipe 2: The water outlet is a natural outflow to the fish pond, the pipe diameter can not be less than the factory configuration, otherwise the micro-water level is too high, the machine starts continuously 3: The sewage pipe can be connected to the sewer or stored for use as fertilizer 4: After the pipe is connected, plug in the controller power supply,When the device is delivered, the controller has been adjusted to automatic mode by default. .diameter Specification ：Inlet diameter 2-1/2"(73mm)outlet diameter 4"(114.3mm)Sewage diameter1-1/2(48.25mm)Product size：35“*23”*23“ All metal components are made of 304 stainless steel.

## Features

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great value and product.
*by C***S on May 6, 2025*

Wow. This thing is a workhorse. I’ve had it almost a year now. And my pond is definitely clearer than before I had it. It is ran on a 2400 gallon pond with two return barrels with plants in them. I just let the removed waste hit the ground.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Shipping banding of drum needed to prevent damage
*by J***M on September 13, 2025*

The media could not be loaded. I have this version for 6 months - working with my 8000 gal pond. I have pre filtration, then to be drum after pre filtration. This removed and cleared water significantly. Even though it’s not on a timer clean, the float switch only works great. When first installed cycle often need to watch water level. After 6 months not so much.Seller needs to band the drum down to protect from shipping damage!. Handlers will tip to ship and drum screen beat to death…lucky not punched thru.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Drum filter what works, what doesn't.
*by E***D on August 27, 2024*

What's bad:1. Box was delivered crushed. The cardboard isn't nearly strong enough for shipping these filters. The filter seems to function ok though, miraculously..2. Filter is rated at 4000 gph, but I couldn't even get close to that. With my pond water about 3000gph was the best I could do, without the filter in a perpetual cleaning cycle. No idea where the 4000 came from.3. This filter is pressure input, gravity output. You need to match the filter output fitting, so free flow output matches pressure input. Most importantly, the water output can never rise above the top of the output fitting. That means this filter must be physically above all output destination fittings in order to function correctly.4. Input water quality greatly affects this filters performance. Leaves and twigs cause bad things to happen when they get inside the drum. Need to filter those out first. The cleaning cycles are supposed to wash the waste out the sewage port. But about 5 % of that waste, ends up splattered on the inside walls of the filter . This ends up right in the output water. So in my case, I still have to clean this filter monthly. This was not designed to be easy to clean!.5. 200 line screen is equivalent to a 74 micron filter. This works wonders for clearing the pond water of flotsam. But fish slime passes right through. So you end up with fish goop all over the inside of the filter, which then gives rise to worms, bacteria, which all happily move into the filter. It's really got to be cleaned regularly to function correctly.6. This is NOT fully automatic, set and forget. Did I mention you have to clean it too?!, and yes, it was not designed to be easy to clean. It's a pita in fact7. You have to adjust the flow rates in and out to minimize washing cycles. For my setup, the washing cycles waste about 35 gallons of water each day. This means your plumbing needs to support flow rate limiting, and you'll need to have a way to constantly replenish the water for your fish as it's lost due to filter cleaning.8. Maybe other brands would be easier to deal with, but this is the only one I've ever bought, so I have nothing to compare too. It works.9. Comes with no warranty, zero, nothing. Cross your fingers.The good:1. It actually works to clear the pond water.2. The cleaning cycle is a pleasure to behold!3. This thing dropped my labor from cleaning my filter sponges every 2 days, to cleaning a drum every 3 to 4 weeks. Saves me a lot of time. But it's not cheap, and it's not easy!4. You get about 35 gallons of free fish fertilizer every day, so pair this with a big garden, and watch your plants grow! By the way, fish fertilizer stinks, so prepare yourself!
