Blue Thumb Altum-Achelous AquaBox Sediment Screen

This screen acts as a pre-filter for your pond system. Its main job is to catch small debris and particles before they reach your pump or main filtration unit, which helps prevent clogs and keeps your water clearer.

Because it is designed to trap debris, you will need to clean it periodically. However, by catching the bulk of the sediment, it actually reduces the frequency with which you have to perform deep maintenance on your main filtration equipment.

This sediment screen is specifically designed for use with the Blue Thumb Altum-Achelous AquaBox system. It is best to verify your specific AquaBox model to ensure a proper fit, as it is engineered as a component for that specific housing.

The screen is made from a durable plastic mesh designed to withstand the submerged conditions of a pond environment. It is built to resist degradation from water exposure while remaining rigid enough to effectively filter out debris.

No, this is a pre-filter accessory, not a replacement for your primary filtration system. It works in tandem with your existing setup to improve efficiency and protect your pump from premature wear caused by debris buildup.
