This is just a small excerpt from a
forum found in Bosnia on the Internet that is talking about the Anoxic
Filtration System.
You really wouldn’t expect Bosnia of
all countries to have Koi much less be talking about using an Anoxic Filter for
their ponds. However, it just goes to show that the Koi/pond hobby has no
bounds and it’s just not the US and the UK that are interested in Koi and the
use of advanced filtration systems, but other countries are advancing their
knowledge in filtration methods as well, too.
The internet has made the earth a lot
smaller than it looks from space and information that not only teaches us new
ways of thinking but new ways of presenting that thinking to others throughout
the world. It’s nice to see that all hobbyists have a universal ground when it
comes to learning new things in this hobby of ours and not just a few countries
or ethnic groups dominate it or its information.
As a scientist it’s amazing that all
may benefit from my information that just a few years ago many hobbyist would
have like to see this Anoxic Filtration System (AFS) and its complicated
Biocenosis Clarification Baskets just “go away” and let the manufactures of
pond products just take over our ways of thinking. Nevertheless, the worm has
turned and now instead of being a slave to high priced pond products we have
choices that can and will make better use of our wherewithal’s.
Today there are still those that
would like to see the Anoxic Filtration idea just go away but they cannot fight
the entire world and its informational highway of knowledge called the
‘Internet!’
QUOTE from forum:
Eto ljudi dobio sam odobrenje od dr.
Kevina Novaka covjeka koj je osmislio i razvio ovaj nacin filtracije pa da vam
ga predstavim.
Vec sam nesto bio spomenuo u jednom
prijasnjem postu. Rijec je o bioloskoj filtraciji koja se odvija u uvijetima sa
vrlo malo ili gotovo nista kisika. Samo da napomenem Dr. Novak je Phd
biologije dakle strucnjak u ovom podrucju.
Napraviti Anoxic-nu filtraciju i nije
neki problem. Sve sto nam treba je pred filter (sieve ili nesto slicno) da
sprijeci dolazak grube prljavstine do "biocen-kosara".
Biokosara je mjesto gdje se odvija bioloska
filtracija. Da bi je napravili trebaju nam: pijesak za macke (koji se ne
gruda), Laterit ili JBL Aquabasis i perforirana kosara za bilje (ako je nemate
izbusite kantu kao sto sam ja).
Kosaru punimo sa pijeskom za macke a
u sredinu stavljamo Laterit ili JBl Agb (200-400 gr po kosari).
Biokosare su negativno nabijene i
rade na taj nacin da usisavaju u sebe amonijak (pozitivno nabijen). A ako
smo iz vode uklonili amonijak onda smo sprijecili oksidaciju u nitrite i
nitrate. Nitrati su hrana za algu. Nitriti su smrtonosni.
O samoj teoriji filtracije cu nesto
kasnije.
Vazno je napomenuti da je ucinak
Anoxicne filtracije u rangu sa skupim sistemima koji kostaju od 5000-7000 €.
Danas sam napravio prvu biokosaru i
stavio je u malo jezerce u kojem su dvije zlatne i jedan rak. Trosak za
jednu kosaru je: 9 kn kanta, sat vremena utroseno na busenje kante, 29 kn 10
litara pijeska u DM-u i 94 kn 5 litara JBL Aqb (dovoljno za 11 velikih kosara).
Jedna biokosara od 400gr laterita je dovoljna za jednog velikog koia (70 cm pa
na vise).

That
people got the approval of others. Kevin Novak, the man who designed and
developed this method of filtration and to introduce him to you.
I
have already been mentioned in a previous post. It is a biological filtration
that takes place in conditions with very little or no oxygen. Just to mention
Dr. Novak's PhD biology so expert in this area.
Making
a Anoxic filtration is not a problem. All we need is to filter (sieve or
something similar) to prevent the arrival of all rough dirt (detritus) to
"BIOCAM-Pulpit".
Biocenosis
is where the biological filtration occurs. To build it we need: cat litter (not
lump), Laterite or JBL AquaBasis and perforated baskets for plants (if you do
not punch a bucket like me).
The
basket is filled with sand for cats and in the middle we put Laterite or JBL
Agb (200-400 g per basket).
Biocenosis
is negatively charged and is working in ways that suck themselves into ammonia
(positively charged). And if we remove ammonia from water then we prevent the
oxidation of nitrites and nitrates. Nitrates are food for algae. Nitrites are
deadly.
About
the theory of filtration I'll find something later.
It
is important to note that the effect Anoxic filtration on a par with expensive
systems, which cost from € 5000-7000.
Today
I made the first biocenosis basket and placed it in a small lake in which two
gold and one cancer. The cost of a basket is: 9kn bucket, an hour spent on
drilling buckets, 29 10 liters of sand in DM and £ 94 5 liters JBL AQB (enough
for 11 large baskets). One biocenosis of 400gr Laterite is enough for one large
Koi (70 cm or better).
