Aquarium Filtration Systems
It is known that the Istanbul Aquarium is managed by experts in their field and in compliance with international standards on every aspect. More than that, all living organisms inside the aquarium live in the nearest conditions to those of their habitat. The management team of the Istanbul Akvaryum has been working closely with MAT LSS for over 4 years and has been upgrading their filtration systems systems constantly. MAT LSS provided engineering solutions and products for better operation practices. The newest attraction is the Penguinarium and our engineering team provided solutions in a very small filtration room. The result is perfect water quality for the penguins without the use of any chloramines.
