Oase 5000 filter
I asked Oase customer service this question without resolution.
I have a lined pond aprox 14' x 8' containing aprox 45 Goldfish. The water is crystal clear and water quality is perfect. The problem is that I have to clean the four foam filters almost everyday. The cleaning indicator pops up and the water flows though the bypass ports. Last Summer the everyday cleanings eventually slowed down to once a week and then weren't needed at all, the filter operated for about 4 months without a cleaning. The flow rate of the pump is 550 gph which is fine according to Oase. This year the filtering process started 3/1
Is this normal considering that the water is clear and water quality tests perfect?
Any advice would be appreciated
