Upgrade your pond or water feature with PondMAX Filtration Matting, a high-performance, easily cut-to-size filtration medium ideal for enhancing both mechanical and biological filtration. Whether you’re maintaining a koi pond in Mt Lofty, a backyard water garden in Middle Ridge or a courtyard feature in Highfields, this filtration matting delivers dependable clarity and healthier water quality suited to Toowoomba’s unique climate.
Designed for hobbyists and professionals alike, the PondMAX Filtration Matting provides a large surface area for beneficial bacteria, while its dense yet permeable fibre structure efficiently captures debris. From fish waste and excess food to dust carried by Toowoomba’s seasonal westerlies, this matting helps keep your pond water clearer for longer.
Key Features & Benefits
✔ Effective Mechanical Filtration
The interwoven fibre design traps suspended solids, leaves, and fine particulate matter, reducing cloudiness and improving water clarity - an essential step for ponds exposed to Toowoomba’s dry-season dust.
✔ Supports Superior Biological Filtration
Its porous structure provides excellent colonisation space for beneficial nitrifying bacteria, promoting stable water parameters essential for healthy fish and plants.
✔ Easy to Cut, Shape, and Install
Customise the mat to fit any pond filter, waterfall box, skimmer, or pump chamber. Perfect for both new installations and retrofitting existing filtration systems.
✔ Long-Lasting & Durable
Constructed from high-quality filtration-grade fibres, PondMAX matting is designed for extended use with resistance to clogging and deterioration, even under Toowoomba’s warm summer temperatures.
✔ Ideal for a Range of Pond Types
Suitable for koi ponds, goldfish ponds, water features, wildlife habitats and aquaculture systems.
How to Use
Cut the matting to suit your filter box or chamber.
Position it so water flows through the fibre layers before returning to your pond.
For best results, pair with biological media and regular pump maintenance.
Rinse as needed, avoiding detergents to protect beneficial bacteria.
