ABSTRACT:
A water filtration system for an aquarium which combines mechanical and biological filtration in a compact and economic assembly. In one embodiment, aquarium water is utilized by a pump assembly to rotate a wheel which rotates in and out of the water to promote the growth of aerobic bacteria which removes dissolved ammonia from the water. The water is also passed through a mechanical filter to provide mechanical filtration. In another embodiment, adsorptive foam separation to remove soluble waste is combined with mechanical filtration. Other embodiments include an arrangement to extend the life of a filter.
