Biotek

Overall Rating:

The BIOTEK  filter utilizes a totally unique backwashing jetting system called the "Fluff-N-Spin. Not only does the internal design of the filter allow for a "Fluffing" of the media during backwash, but spins the bed and each individual piece of the BIOTEK media. This causes the media to get rid of any old bio floc that might be clinging to each piece, while holding on to the precious beneficial bacteria with in the filter. There is no other like it.

Comes complete with 6 position Multiport valve that allows you to backwash, bypass to waste, bypass to recirculate, rinse. You can even use this filter to vacuum out your pond with the addition of a vacuum hose to your pump.

I upgraded to this filter and I am very happy with the results. The price was right and it does an excellent job keeping my pond clean. Super easy to backwash and the valve is very solid and well made.

Review:
This is the economy filter by GC Tek and its comparable to most other filters on the market except it is superior on the backwash setting. Other models like the Ultima are similar in cost and capabilities but don't backwash as well which means you have to open them up at least once a year to clean them out. Not so with this unit.

Review:
I have the biotek 1.75 on my 2000 gallon koi pond. I have had it running for the past three years. It is very easy to backwash and gets very clean. I thought maybe I should open it up earlier this year since I had been using it for so long. But when i got it open it was still pretty much clean other then a healthy bio film all over everything and some weird bugs and what looked like little stringy brown algae at the bottom. But it never clogged and sludge never built up inside. The valve is well made and had given me no problems after three years exposed to full sun and Maine winters.
