The Biostar Flotor is a combination of a powerful motor driven protein skimmer with the Biorotor biological filter. It is designed for salt water aquariums up to 250 l. It is the smallest commercially manufactured complete filter system for salt water aquariums. The competitively priced Biostar Flotor allows nearly every tank within its capacity to be transformed into a marine aquarium. It is an ideal filter system for beginners in the marine hobby. With the Biostar Flotor the new trend in marine aquaria, the Microreef and Nanoreef aquariums can be successfully achieved. The skimming capacity of the system is large enough for dense stocking levels, even with fast growing SPS corals. The Biostar Flotor is also ideal for specialist aquaria - for sea horses, crustacea or other invertebrates.
- protein skimmer with venturi pump (Ocean Runner PH 2000, 9 watts with Needle Wheel)
- Biorotor system creating exceptional biological capacity with enhanced oxygen uptake as the bacteria are alternately emersed and submersed.
- simple "hang on" mounting with 4 cm capacity holder. Dimensions (l x w x h):
8.5 x 25 x 23 cm - including foam cup 38 cm (c. 3.4" x 10" x 9.2" - including foam cup c. 15.2"
)

Supply/maintain our computer equipment

The Ocean Runner pumps are powerful universal pumps to be used as circulation or current pumps, both in saltwater and freshwater aquaria. The Ocean Runners are supplied with a rugged pump housing, an energy saving motor, a polished ceramic shaft and ceramic bearings. All these qualities ensure a quiet and maintenance free performance for many years.
The Ocean runner pumps are also available in outdoor proofed version with 10 m rubber cable for ponds.

The Aqua Medic overflow box is mounted to the outside of the aquarium. A constant water level is maintained after the start of the overflow. Water circulation is achieved by pumping the water up from the filter-sump into the aquarium, and then with the use of the overflow box back into the filter. This makes it possible to connect aquariums to under the counter filters systems without having to drill holes in the tank. The overflow box is a completely constructed form acrylic and available in two types:
Type 1 up to 2500 l/h (625 gph), and
Type 2 up to 5000 l/h ( 1250 gph
)

The Turboflotor Multi SL is our most versatile protein skimmer. It can be fixed to the side of the aquarium (´hang-on´ mode), or placed inside or outside the sump of the filter. Its compact size makes it small enough to be stored under the cabinet.
In the ´hang-on´mode, only the pump is placed inside the aquarium. The pump Ocean Runner PH 2500, 37 W, features a venturi with the patented Aqua Medic needle wheel. The skimmer itself has the conical collection cup inner tube (also patented), and a lid, and two outflow boxes for directing the outflow back into the aquarium.
As an option, a large 1.2 litre (0.3 gallon) Filter Box can be placed at the outlets, for use as a first stage biological filter.
Height: 55 cm, c. 22"
Total width: 17 x 17 cm, c. 7" x 7"

The Turboflotor 1000 is a compact skimmer with an integrated trickle filter, designed for installation in a sump. The skimmer includes venturi pump with needle wheel to mix air with water and pushes both into the reaction pipe (110 mm, 4.4 inches in diameter). The skimmer´s design ensures an intensive air-water mix giving a long contact time for the air bubbles. The bubbles create foam that is collected in the conical foam cup. Treated water from the reaction cylinder is fed to the attached Bactoball filled trickle filter, which is used for biological filtration.

The reef 1000 filtration system is designed for installation in the cabinet under an aquarium. In a compact space it contains nearly all the equipment necessary for the maintenance of a successful modern reef aquarium. The system comprises a sump, 90 x 36 x 35 cm (c. 36" x 14.5" x 14"), with a mechanical filter chamber containing sponges. From here, the water flows via two venturi pumps into twin turboflotor 1000 protein skimmers, with their post skimming trickle towers loaded with Bactoballs. Additional components are the Nitratereductor and the Calcium Reactor with Dosing pumps SP 3000 and the Niveaustat, a system for automatic replenishment of evaporated fresh water from the aquarium.
Dimensions (l x w x h): 95 x 36 x 64 cm (c. 38" x 15" x 25.5")
For the installation minimum additional 15 cm (c. 6") are required
Water connections: inlet - union D 50, outlet to pumps - 2 x D25/32

The reef 500 filter system is a compact 3-stage unit for use in the cabinet under the aquarium. The units is of modular construction and can be enlarged or extended as required. The system comprises a pre-filtration module filled with sponge, for performing mechanical filtration, a Turboflotor 1000 protein skimmer with venturi pump and needle wheel, and a post skimming trickle filter filled with Bactoballs for biological filtration. A purpose built glass sump is available as an option. This sump is designed to take, in addition to the reef 500, a Calcium Reactor and a Nitratreductor, for expansion of the system. Dimensions: 51 x 17 x 60 cm (LxWxH), c. 21" x 7" x 24" (LxWxH)
Water connection, inlet: union D 32

The Marin 1000 filter system is designed for use under the aquarium. It consists of an enclosed filter sump 60.5 x 40.5 x 57.5 cm (c. 24" x 16" x 23") housing the filter modules. For maintenance, the modules are easily reached through two sliding panes, and for installation, the lid of the filter housing can be removed. Aquarium water is first treated by the three trickle filter modules that utilise Bactoballs as their biological media.
A mechanical/carbon filter module is included in the main water flow whilst a patented Turboflotor 1000 venturi protein skimmer operates on a by pass line.
A Nitratereductor is supplied with water by a Dosing pump SP 600.Dimensions (l x w x h): 60.5 x 40.5 x 57.5 cm, (c. 24"x 16"x 23") For the installation a minimum additional 15 cm (c. 6") in the length is required.
