Description

X-Stream Silica koi sand is a specialised, high-purity graded quartz sand used as mechanical filter media in koi pond and ornamental pond filtration systems

X-Stream Silica Koi Sand 40 Kg, Sports and Recreation: Silica sand is widely used in sports fields, golf courses, and playgrounds. It is used as a topdressing material for sports turf to improve drainage and stability. 4 mm to 7 mm

Key Features and Uses
  • Particle Size: Typically graded between 4mm to 8mm for pond and gravity filters, preventing it from clogging too quickly while trapping solid waste. [1, 2, 3]
  • Mechanical Filtration: Traps dirt, debris, and suspended particles out of the water before it reaches biological filters or UV clarifiers. [1, 2, 3]
  • Water Chemistry: Pure silica quartz does not alter the pH or mineral balance of the pond water. [1]
  • Maintenance: Requires regular backwashing to clear out trapped debris and should generally be replaced every 18 to 24 months as the coarse edges of the grains wear down. [1, 2, 3]
