Fish Mate Filters (5000 PUV)

Replaced 10 year old unit that had a rusty transformer. Filters pond water and uv bulb kills algae. Needs cleaning every 2 to 3 weeks in summer.

Arrived on time easy to set up and it's working well.

Used for clearing water and serving waterfall.

Easy to set up and working well

This is replacing a Fishmate filter which I have had for many years.It's an excellent filter. Strongly recommended.

I chose this rating because it did the job that I wanted it to do pond now looks very clear

This is the best filter I have had, it cleaned my pond in no time at all.

Works really well would purchase from again.

I waited over the winter until reviewing this filter. My old filter would clock after a 2 or 3 weeks. This filter did not clog and is really easy to clean.I don't know about the UV light though. I have not seen any reduction in algae on my waterfall. I still love the filter though. Would buy more again.

It does a great job of controlling the Algae and String Algae in our small ( less than 500 gallons ) Koi Pond. The only improvement I would recommend would be an easier method of cleaning it once a week.

I have this installed in my turtle pond. The pond used to get green within 3 days and you can't see the turtles and small guppies. With this UV filter installed the pond water has remained clear for the last 3 weeks. I really didn't like cleaning this pond and I'm glad this filter will greatly reduce the amount of times I will have to clean it.

After installing the pond filter, we realized the UV light was not working. We were able to purchase a bulb at a local nursery because we did not want to remove the filter and return it. Otherwise, we are pleased with the unit, and it appears to be working properly.

I have a three year, 300 gallon stock tank pond. It's never had filtration of any kind. It has been pea soup for three summers. It gets full west texas sun, and is moderately stocked. The filter has cleared visibility to the bottom in 4 days. I'm totally impressed. No buyers remorse. When this one quits, I'll probably order another.
