EHEIM Biopower Internal Power Filter – High-Performance Filtration for Aquariums
The EHEIM Biopower Internal Power Filter is a groundbreaking filtration solution that combines the multi-layer efficiency of an external filter with the convenience of an internal design. Building on the innovative aquaball concept, this filter features an all-round rotatable pump head, modular construction, and closed filter baskets prefilled with EHEIM SUBSTRATpro for exceptional filtration performance. Perfect for both freshwater and marine aquariums, the Biopower filter ensures crystal-clear water and a healthy aquatic environment.
Key Features:
- Multi-Layer Filtration: Provides external filter-level performance with multiple stages of filtration. Water is drawn from the bottom, pumped through filter layers, and returned to the tank, ensuring effective mechanical, biological, and chemical purification.
- Modular Construction: Customisable filter volume with easy-to-clip filter baskets using the Easy-Klick Locking System. Allows for flexible cleaning intervals to preserve beneficial bacteria.
- Prefilled with EHEIM SUBSTRATpro: Highly efficient filter media for biological filtration, with the option to use other media for tailored filtration needs.
- Rotatable Pump Head: 360° adjustable outflow direction for precise water circulation.
- Power Diffuser & Wide Jet Nozzle: Ensures strong oxygen enrichment and natural surface water movement.
- Durable Design: High-quality construction with a suction cup holder for secure attachment to aquarium glass.
- Convenient Maintenance: Quick and easy removal for cleaning or module adjustments.
- Ready to Use: Includes original EHEIM filter media and is fully assembled for immediate operation.
How It Works:
- Water Intake: Draws water in at the bottom through the inlet basket with a mechanical-biological prefiltration cartridge.
- Filtration Process: Pumps water upwards through modular filter baskets, which can be filled with filter pads, SUBSTRATpro, bioMECH, or other media.
- Water Output: Filtered water is returned to the aquarium via the adjustable pump head with optional power diffuser.
