According to MJ Aquascaping 's review video for BioMaster 850, the best features that he like the most is the Easy Clean Pre-filter Module. It makes the maintenance a lot easier and quicker. Also, he says the design and quality is very good for every fish keeper. Another feature of BioMaster he like the most is the adjustable heater, it is nicely hidden in the BioMaster and changes the water temperature of aquariums. Good complete set for starters.

Oase Biomaster does a great job of filtering the water. It comes with tons of reusable sponges that work well for catching fish waste and other gunk.

Plus, it includes unique features, like an integrated heater, a sturdy handle on the motorhead and biomedia that’s like a cross between bio balls and ceramic noodles.

The water parameters were consistently healthy throughout the testing period, the water clarity was excellent and the heater maintained a steady temperature despite radical swings between day and night temperatures out in barn.

"If you are serious about planted freshwater aquariums, this is the best filtration system on the market. Saltwater enthusiasts looking for a canister filter for their system should also give the BioMaster a try."

He ran the unit on my tank for 30 days without doing any water changes or other maintenance, apart from topping up for evaporation. During that time, the water remained crystal clear, despite regular feedings with flake food and frozen brine shrimp. Patches of blue green algae (cyanobacteria) that had been tenaciously growing on the substrate disappeared, never to return. He also observed that the fish seemed to appreciate the currents produced by the 250 gallons per hour flow rate.

Biomaster filter is horrible, and the customer service is a joke. They DO NOT have any experience with equipment that is used for reef aquariums. Anytime you have salt creep at the PRIMER button and the unit continously purge air, THERE IS A OBVIOUS AIR LEAK!!! After careful inspection of gaskets, and following advise from oase troubleshooter, which was, ( clean every nook and kranny) and still the experience the same issue, the troubleshooter’s don’t know anything about the unit. Great idea,bad engineering. I don’t recommend this filter for reef aquariums. Plus the flow rate is false, per tank size. Go with fluval fx series, those canister’s are great for fresh and saltwater. Plus the actual flow rates and gallons per hour are explained per unit. OASE IS A JOKE, STICK WITH FRESHWATER, YALL AIN’T READY FOR REEFERS!!

I’ve been running my Oase 850 thermo filter on a 200L African cichlid tank for 18 months. I was very lucky to have won the filter in a competition in PFK magazine.
I wash the pre-filter sponges every week. I srip the filter down once every 4 months and I’m amazed how clean the media is. I’ve had no problems with noise. My tank water is crystal clear despite the mess made by the Cichlids. It’s an amazing filter with some really great extras. Well done Oase.
