The Role of Drum Filters and Biofilters in Aquarium Maintenance
Aquariums are not just decorative additions to homes; they are complex ecosystems that require balance and care to maintain optimal conditions for fish and other inhabitants. In this article, we will explore the role of drum filters and biofilters in aquariums, their technical specifications, and benefits.
Drum Filter:
A drum filter is a mechanical device that efficiently purifies water from mechanical impurities such as food residues, plant debris, and other particles. It consists of a drum with a fine mesh through which water passes. Contaminated water passes through the mesh, and particles are retained on it, which are then removed during the drum's rinsing process.
Technical Characteristics of Drum Filters:
Mesh Size: Typically around 50 microns, allowing for the capture of particles from 50 and above microns.
Performance: Depends on the specific model; the number in the drum filter's name indicates how much water it can purify per hour. It is recommended to choose a drum filter with a capacity exceeding your requirement by at least 20%.
Rinsing Mechanism: The automatic rinsing mechanism keeps the drum clean without the need for manual cleaning.
Advantages of Using Drum Filters in Aquariums:
Effective Water Purification: Drum filters remove mechanical impurities, preventing their accumulation in the aquarium.
Automation: The automatic mesh rinsing mechanism simplifies the filter maintenance process.
Safety of Aquarium Inhabitants: Clean water positively impacts the health of fish and other aquarium inhabitants.
Types of Biofilters:
Membrane Biofilm Reactor (MBR): This type of biofiltration uses semi-permeable membranes that separate biological water treatment processes from others, such as mechanical filtration. The membranes offer moderate cleaning efficiency, retaining bacteria and other microorganisms inside the biofilter. It does not require aeration and the installation of an air pump.
Moving Bed Reactor (MBR): This type of biofiltration uses moving media to provide a large surface area for bacterial habitation. The moving media constantly circulate in the water, promoting highly efficient metabolism and more effective water purification. It requires air and an air pump.
Choosing the appropriate type of biofilter depends on the specific conditions of your aquarium and water purification requirements. Both types of biofilters are effective and contribute to creating a healthy environment for the growth and development of aquarium fish and other inhabitants. Our consultants will help you choose the right biofilter for your system.
