Cloverleaf Dual Function Foam Fractioner (Without Ozoniser)
If you’re serious about crystal-clear, healthy pond water, the Cloverleaf Dual Function Foam Fractioner is an essential addition to your filtration setup. This model does not include an Ozoniser, but for those who want the enhanced benefits of ozone purification, you can find the Cloverleaf BioProtein Fractioniser & Ozoniser here.
Premium Pond Protein Skimmer & Biological Filter in One
Cloverleaf’s engineers have taken a fresh, innovative approach, basing this compact unit on the proven M70 fluidised bed filter body. Rather than simply producing oxygen-rich water and letting that potential go to waste, this design also incorporates a high-performance floating biological media bed — delivering both protein skimming and biological filtration in a single device.
This makes it perfect for pond keepers looking to:
-
Remove unsightly foam caused by excess proteins and dissolved organic compounds (DOCs).
-
Improve nitrite reduction and overall water quality.
-
Maintain high oxygen saturation levels for fish health and beneficial bacteria.
Why This Fractioner Stands Out
-
Dual Functionality – Removes waste proteins and boosts biological filtration.
-
Compact Footprint – Ideal for space-conscious setups.
-
Superior Media – Contains 4 litres of long-life floating media, as used in Cloverleaf’s advanced ADTEC Multi Bay Filters.
-
Easy Maintenance – Clear column for visual inspection and quick venturi cleaning.
-
Made in the UK – Designed and manufactured at Cloverleaf’s Essex facility.
How It Works
Water is pumped (via a dedicated pump) through a venturi which injects air, producing oxygen-rich water that travels through the biological media. Contaminants attach to the rising air bubbles, which are collected in the transparent inner tube and discharged into a waste outlet for easy removal. The cleaned, oxygen-saturated water returns to your pond, improving both clarity and health.
A Cloverleaf side valve lets you fine-tune the waste extraction and oxygen output, making it adaptable to different pond sizes and pump capacities.
