Romeo Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 . I'm looking for the best two in terms of power usage and low noise. I want one for my GF, and one for my Koura tank to add a little extra oxygen.

spoon Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 to add more oxygen move ur eheim filter up so the outlet agitates the surface of the water. airpumps dont actually put oxygen in the water , the bubbles rising make a current which moves water across the surface where it can absorb oxygen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romeo Posted September 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 Oh really, well I was thinking of putting an airstone in for aesthetic effect more than anything ;P. I like to look of bubbles. PS: Have you looked in that stream for Koura yet?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stella Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 what did that relate to??? :lol: But yeah, native fish hunting rocks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmsmith Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 I have eheim pumps, and I can vouch for how quiet they are. They can be pretty expensive, but sometimes places like animates have them under half price (the mark up makes me sick! :evil:). If the noise doesn't bother you, Silent Flo's are good, I have a couple of them too. They have good grunt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
