Niji-no-Taki Bakki Shower (No Drum)
Bakki Shower — powerful biological filtration
The biological heart of the Niji-no-Taki system: a stainless-steel bakki shower (trickle tower) that cascades pond water through stacked ceramic media, where beneficial bacteria convert ammonia and nitrite while the water gases off and oxygenates. This is the shower only (no rotary drum) — pair it with a Niji-no-Taki drum or your own mechanical pre-filter.
Ceramic media biology
Huge surface area grows the beneficial bacteria that clear ammonia and nitrite.
Oxygen-rich trickle
Cascading water gases off CO₂ and lifts dissolved oxygen across the pond.
Quiet spillway
Spillway return softens splash for a calmer, quieter water feature.
3 or 4 layers
Stainless construction; choose stack height to match your pond and load.

How it works & pairing
Your pump pushes pond water to the top of the tower; it trickles down through trays of ceramic media and returns over the spillway, oxygenated and biologically polished. Run it after a Niji-no-Taki rotary drum or your existing mechanical pre-filter for complete filtration.
