Aquascape FilterBlox Module

Aquascape FilterBlox Module

Built to work with Aquascape wetland filter components, FilterBlox™ keeps water moving evenly while providing biological filtration. The FilterBlox™ Module is the biological heart of the wetland filter, providing 441% more surface area than traditional gravel beds for beneficial bacteria to colonize. Its internal HDPE Biological Filter Tubes create an ideal environment for breaking down excess nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and excess organic waste.

This innovative component is designed to integrate seamlessly with Centipede® Modules, Snorkel® Vaults, and other Aquascape wetland filter components The open, structured media promotes even water movement through the module, ensuring consistent filtration across the wetland. This design also optimises cleaning during maintenance pump-outs, making service faster and more effective. Each module comes with pre-installed Biological Filter Tubes for fast, efficient installation in the field.

Stackable and modular, FilterBlox Modules can be configured to fit virtually any wetland layout, are the same size as AquaBlox® Water Storage Modules – Small, work seamlessly with all Aquascape wetland components.

Verified technical information

Use the values for Aquascape part number 56016; related sizes and visually similar service parts may have different specifications.

Designing the reservoir and filtration zone

Calculate the water held in the stream or waterfall when the pump is running and make sure the underground reservoir can accept that drawdown when the system stops. Allow for structural loading, clean-out access, pump servicing and a stable finished water level before covering the installation with stone.

Our practical advice: If you are unsure about sizing or compatibility, send us the Aquascape part numbers you already have and a photograph or sketch of the installation. We will help check the combination before dispatch.
