This filter works great only when I stuff a lot of polyester quilt batting between the bio balls and top foam. I don't think the bio balls do anything but take up space

I just bought this filter, was wondering am I able to add additional media?

[@timgraves.crittersinmyarea7792]

Polyester quilt batting and the black foam on top works better than the balls.

[@TriniTrav]

Can I use a different media in the drum such as K1?

[@timgraves.crittersinmyarea7792]

Yes. I use polyester quilt batting between the balls and foam and it clears the water fast

[@gloriauselton9897]

What... the filter media is one half foam pad and some balls....WHAT!!!

This filter is a cheap pool filter, carelessly rigged into being some sort of poor excuse for a pond filter. The ports for UV where originally used for saltwater probes in a pool. The UV lights installed are way underrated for pond use for the size of filter and the compact flourscents are outdated and ineffectiant to say the least. Top that off with the ugly adapters for 1 1/2" hoses and the poorly executed particulate tray designed for pool media with carelessly punched out slots. Save your money or convert one yourself. They even come with a pump and base for the same price as a pool filter right from the big rock candy mountain!
