#6 Al Leun on how zoos & aquariums keep their water clean - a podcast by The International Zoo & Aquarium Review

Al Leun is the owner and president of Aquatic Exhibits International (or AEI). Specialists in turnkey aquarium projects across both the private and public sectors, AEI has a diverse team with over 45 years combined experience in aquarium design, installation, project management and professional animal care.

In this episode we chat to Al about the origin of filtration, the process of designing and setting up a commercial filtration system, and why operating a filter is a bit like being a bacteria farmer! 

You can learn more about AEI here, and you can also find them on Facebook and LinkedIn by searching "Aquatic Exhibits International" -- go show them some love!
