Aqua Genie filter

Recommended Posts

Has anybody seen the new "Aqua Genie" filter brought out in Australia?

It looks quite interesting! It has this odd backflushing system to clear the filter of accumulated gunk. It's run by an air pump and has what are described as "marbles" inside as a filter medium. It looks absolutely hideous but the concept sounds interesting doesn't it?

I originally saw it in the Australian Aquarium Magazine (or whatever it's called). It's this big green thing that has a mchanism to clean all the gunk out of it.

Their website is http://www.aquagenie.com.au/

They make some pretty impressive claims but it looks really interesting and on thinking about it no uglier than my air driven sponge filter. Apparently they are working on a cannister (is that what you call them?) and a hang on the back variety too.
