The Model 8.8-C is definitely the Mac Daddy of all bead filters in its price range. Boasting worry free maintenance on ponds up to 28,000 gallons. Our latest proving ground for high fish load concentrations on the Model 8.8 is a commercial fishery that is running 600 pounds of fish in a single living, growing system with generous feeding habits, yet they claim a most excellent water quality with regard to waste management. At such a heavy load, their practice is to take a few minutes and backwash the system every day to eliminate the mechanical waste from the heavy feeding that goes on in the commercial facility. In the average large pond installation, the sheer volume of the Model 8.8 can bless you with only having to backwash as little as once every 3 weeks. These farmers joke that you really can clean the filter with a cup of coffee in your hand.
