EHEIM biopower 160 internal filter

With the EHEIM biological filter, you get a high-performance internal filter like never before.

It features a fully rotatable pump head, modular construction, and other features from the aquaball concept.

What distinguishes the biopower is that it provides multi-layer filtration like an external filter. The closed filter baskets are filled with highly efficient filter media (e.g., SUBSTRATpro). The intake basket with the filter cartridge for mechanical-biological filtration is located at the bottom. Water is drawn from the bottom and pumped upwards through the different filter layers and after filtration, it is directed back into the aquarium.

There are 3 models for aquariums from 80 to 240 liters.

Aquaball concept with external filter technology

External filter technology and multi-layer filtration - this means: water is pumped from the bottom to the top through the different filter layers and after filtration, it is directed back into the aquarium.

The closed filter baskets come pre-filled with EHEIM SUBSTRATpro. Other filter media can also be used.

The intake basket contains a filter cartridge for mechanical-biological filtration. In the pump head holder, a filter pad provides additional filtration.

By adding or removing filter units (filter baskets) you can adjust the filter size as needed.

To extend the filter's use, use ExtensionSET2

The filter baskets can be easily connected and disconnected (easy-click locking system).

Thanks to the modular construction, the filter cartridge or media can be cleaned at different intervals, preserving bacterial cultures.

The pump power and flow can be adjusted via the control knob on the flow nozzle.

The air distributor is adjusted to regulate air intake, thus enhancing oxygen in the aquarium.

(Instead of the distributor, other extension pieces can be used; see accessories)

The biopower holder is simply mounted on the glass using suction cups. For cleaning, replacing units, or filling filter media, the filter can be easily removed from its holder.
