The innovative OxyTex 1000 offers a unique combination of aeration, circulation and settlement from OASE, the world's leading manufacturer of Aquatic technology. Air can be forced into the OxyTex via a seperate Air Pump (not supplied) which will then diffuse and rise through the hair-like structure where beneficial bacteria thrive.
The OxyTex CWS provides a unique combination of pond aeration, circulation and settlement surface.
Like all animals, fish absorb oxygen from their environment for respiration. When oxygen concentrations become low, anoxic (oxygen starvation) conditions may develop which can decrease the pond's ability to support life. Depending on how low the dissolved oxygen concentration is and how long it remains low, fish may eat less, convert food less efficiently and grow more slowly, be more susceptible to infectious diseases, or even suffocate and die. Dissolved oxygen (DO) is a major contributor to water quality. Not only do fish and other aquatic animals need oxygen, but so do aerobic bacteria that decompose organic matter (silt). By infusion of air into the bottom of the pond, rising air bubbles and water movement will raise bottom water to the surface, thus releasing toxic gases to the atmosphere. Natural bacteria are stimulated by aeration and they will feed on organic waste and nutrients that would otherwise support algae blooms. Using aeration and bacteria is a safe and sound form of pollution control. An OxyT
ex Aerator not only provides essential oxygen into the pond but its large settlement surface support vital friendly bacteria to combat blanket weed and algae bloom. The exceptional circulation capacity of an OxyTex adds considerable support to the pond filter system, improving performance by up to 25%. Its decorative, plant effect, design will make it a practical and attractive addition to your pondOase CWS = Clear Water System comprises optimally matched products including OxyTex CWS, Swimskim 50 CWS and Filtomatic CWS filters | Oase OxyTex Set 1000 CWS |
