Caldwell Posted November 30, 2012 Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 Hi all Any suggestions for an airpump for a fishroom that has 2x200l, 1x150l, 4x30l tanks. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmsmith Posted November 30, 2012 Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 You want a compressor. They can be noisy, but they pump a lot of air. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F15hguy Posted November 30, 2012 Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 check out the Aqua one brand pond air pumps, very quiet and high volume or just get 3 el cheapo air pumps (the AP-950 springs to mind) im assuming just for sponge filters or are you doing good old UG filters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted November 30, 2012 Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 You don't want a compressor. They give a small volume of air at a high pressure. What you want is an airpump that will give a large volume of air at a moderate pressure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F15hguy Posted November 30, 2012 Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 +1 thats only a small amount, I'm running 2 sponge filters on a medium sized airpump either spend 2 x $50 or 1 x 150 with room to expand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myfishybuisness Posted November 30, 2012 Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 I would recommend the pond pumps, my grandads got one running around 20 tanks all with sponge filters so should do you fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
