Matala Koi Clear V-105 Vortex Filter with Filter Media
The Matala Koi Clear V-105 Vortex Filter represents a state-of-the-art approach to pond filtration. Engineered for versatility and efficiency, this progressive filtration system can be used as a standalone unit or integrated into a larger modular multi-chamber setup. Whether you need a primary vortex mechanical filter or a combined mechanical and biological powerhouse, the V-105 is designed to scale with your pond's needs.
A single standard unit is perfectly suited for water gardens ranging from 3,000 to 5,000 gallons, supporting flow rates up to 3,000 gallons per hour. Its unique design allows it to be buried at pond level for gravity-fed systems or positioned above the water line for gravity-exit configurations.
Key Features:
-
Versatile Modular Design: Use as a single vortex filter or connect multiple units to create a custom multi-stage filtration system.
-
Progressive Filtration: Includes high-quality Matala filter media with a 3-dimensional structure that provides a stepwise transition from mechanical to biological filtration.
-
High Flow Capacity: Suitable for ponds up to 5,300 gallons with a maximum flow rate of 3,000 GPH.
-
Dual Installation Options: Compatible with both gravity-flow-in (buried) and gravity-flow-out (elevated) designs.
-
Superior Biological Surface Area: The included Matala media provides massive surface area for beneficial bacteria to thrive, ensuring crystal clear and healthy water.
-
Easy Maintenance: The vortex design allows heavy solids to settle at the bottom for easy flushing, while the Matala mats are simple to rinse.

Why Choose the Matala Koi Clear V-105? Unlike standard pressure filters that can clog easily, the V-105 utilizes natural vortex physics to remove heavy solids before the water even reaches the filter mats. This "pre-filter" action significantly reduces the frequency of cleaning and extends the life of your biological colony, making it a favorite among serious koi hobbyists and professional pond builders.
