Pond Vacuum II Plus – Matala

Product details

Pond Vacuum II Plus – Matala is a pond & koi equipment “muck buster” designed to remove debris from hobbyist ponds and water gardens. Using a strong suction system, it helps lift algae, sludge, dead plant material, leaves, and other settled waste so you can clean the bottom and perform easier routine maintenance. The unit also supports auto fill and drain cycles, allowing you to vacuum debris into the canister and then discharge the dirty water away from the pond (for example, into garden beds), rather than returning it to the pond.

Features:

• Powerful suction that can lift water and loosen/collect muck from the pond bottom
• Efficient debris pickup for algae, sludge, dead plants, leaves, and small pebbles (up to 3/8" diameter)
• Auto fill and drain cycle: vacuum fills the canister, then the water is discharged into a garden area or drain
• Timed on/off operation (about 40 seconds vacuum, then about 20 seconds drain) to keep the cleaning cycle moving
• Includes a mesh bag to help capture coarse debris before releasing water for safe garden/yard disposal
• Designed for fish ponds and water gardens, supporting monthly water-change style maintenance
• Comes with extension tubes and hoses to reach deeper areas
