Rufus Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simian Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 yes I saw it too. I cant understand how they can say it looks good in any tank but it sure looks promising. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rufus Posted March 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
