Aquaculture bio-filters and aquarium biofilters are biological filters. Fish farms and garden ponds use filters. Freshwater filters and saltwater filters use the same biological filters as biofiltration systems. Biofilters use bacteria to filter water. QuikSand filters are biological filters. Marine, reef, fresh, salt, tropical fish, bait, bass, catfish, coral, crawfish, koi, lobster, prawn, shrimp, trout and salmon all need water bio filters for biological filtration.
