LeftHookGary Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 Im going to set up a quarantine tank looking for a good, quiet single outlet air pump to run a sponge filter. The tank/tote will be around 60l. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrienne Posted February 23, 2017 Report Share Posted February 23, 2017 If you want quiet then don't buy a cheap one. IMO with air pumps price is often a reflection of the noise The size you require is not so much dependent on the tank size but the head height the pump is pumping to so it will depend where you are placing the air pump ie above or below the tank. Its a shame you are not in Auckland as I have a double outlet Stellar by AquaOne air pump that I have never ever used, just sitting in a box in the garage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
