Oase is sure to \'clean up\' with this filter set as it offers fantastic features at a very reasonable price. Launched in 2010 this filter system has proved popular with our customers with high levels of satisfaction being reported. Despiteits low price this pump and filter set still packs a punch in terms of its wealth of features. This set offers real value for money for customers looking to maintain goldfish ponds up to 5,000 litres (1,500 gallons).Perhaps its biggest selling point is the Oase patented easy-clean system. Simply pump the blue handle on the filter lid up and down and the filter sponges are compressed/agaitated releasing the dirt. This system was previously only available on the more expensive Oase Filtoclear filter range until now. What benefit this system provides to the customer is that it means you can clean this pressure filter without opening the lid - this saves time during maintenance and saves you from getting dirty.The filter also boasts a powerful 11w UVC to prevent green water and filter media to trap dirt and ensure biological filtration takes place. The set is sold complet with the Oase solids handling filter pump FP3500. This pump offers low running costs of just 70w yet can handle solids up to 4mm size with ease.
