Green-Accent Foam Holder for BioSmart and Biotec Compact Filters
The Oase BioSmart 5000–10000 / Biotec 5.1–10.1 black foam holder (green accent) secures the coarse-grade mechanical filter foam inside your compact filter unit. This colour-coded holder is part of a three-stage foam system — each colour corresponds to a different filtration density, ensuring you reinstall the media in the correct sequence after cleaning.
Why Foam Holders Matter
A cracked or warped holder lets water bypass the foam entirely, sending unfiltered pond water back to the pond. The holder frame also keeps the foam compressed to the correct thickness for optimal particle capture. Replacing a damaged holder restores full filtration efficiency immediately.

Installation
Open the filter lid, lift out the foam and holder assembly, and separate the foam from the damaged holder. Seat the foam into the new holder and slide the assembly back into the filter chamber. Confirm the colour order matches the factory sequence before closing the lid.
Ideal for pond owners performing seasonal filter maintenance on BioSmart or Biotec compact filter systems.
