JameyRM Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 Hey guys, I need an air pump for my 6 x2 x 2. I went to set up several of the ones I own last night...none of them pump air towards the bottom... SO the question is.. can anyone recommend one that will blast the crap out of the water at that deep? I want two valves so I can have at least two sponge filters going...but any airstone will do, I just need to oxygenate the water. Reason for quick reply, I am going to age of aquariums in the next hour! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JameyRM Posted October 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 awesome man thanks! I always am weary of asking the shop keepers because they might want money then your best interest...but I have noticed a couple of LFS who are genuinely interested in your needs so i'll give them a go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JameyRM Posted October 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 thanks for the suggestion mate! Awesome service and really happy with my buy! He directed me away from the air pump and to the internel filter, now for he same price I would of spent I have added 2000l/hr to my tank and swiveled it up to break the surface, the water flow is insane!

DeadFishFloating Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 Good to meet you Jamey! Yea when you see 2000lph on an otto you get 2000lph! You can add a spraybar on if you want to spread out the flow, or clip on more cups if you want to be able to pick up more debris. But as they come they are pretty groovy in my book their best feature tho, is that they are easy to clean a lucky thing that, as they sure are good at collecting crap!
