That looks really cool with the bubbles coming out the middle of the log ornament like that. 👍

[@Fishaholic]

Thanks Daniel for watching. I use it to hide the air stone but fish does enjoy swimming through the structure a lot.

@@Fishaholic hi I had a question. I just installed an oxygen pump for my tank but my fish still tend to swim at the top. Am I doing something wrong? I have a filter in the tank and a heater as well.

[@leezadibennardo6169]

The fish are guppies. I had 4 but one recently died :/ they aren’t hungry either. I’m not sure what’s wrong? I have a 2.5 gal tank, so there’s more than enough room for 3 guppies

[@Fishaholic]

Hi Leeza, guppies usually occupies the top part of the tank. My endlers and guppies all swim at the surface. If the fish are swimming around and are active then don't stress. Don't overfeed if they ain't hungry. Is the tank established? How long filter has been running in the tank for?

[@Fishaholic]

Do you have any plants or decorations in the tank?

[@Fishaholic]

Hi Denise, I bought it from local fish store but they don't sell it any more. Tried to look around for another one but couldn't find any. Clips can be purchased from hardware store and then silicone it to the glass but they have to be the size of the tube. Appreciate your time

[@denisekane9629]

@@Fishaholic thanks so much!

[@kishsoo8390]

Joe did you attached the pipe on the wall

[@praveenvenkatachari78]

Thank you. Quite helpful. 2 questions (1) Should we always keep airpump horizontally or can i also keep it vertically on top (power source) comes further from the top. (2) If i use tube from top, should i take the airstone to bottom of tank or should i leave it hanging in middle.

[@Fishaholic]

Hi Praveen, location of the pump doesn't affect where air stone can be located in the tank. And you can also keep the air pump in any position you want. If its too noisy then add a Styrofoam under it. If the air tube is too long then it might slower the bubbles. Go for a stronger pump than what you need and shouldn't be any issue. Appreciate your comment and have a good one.

[@rudabb69]

question? can you not block one outlet and then the air would go from the other outlet only almost double the power? just wondering...

[@Fishaholic]

Haven't tried blocking one outlet as I was afraid it might put pressure on the pump so converted 2 outlets to one to get the same amount of air flowing through the air stone

[@explorersanjeev4103]

This air pump looks really cool........ & Congrats for your 1k sub...... Have you apply for monetization

[@Fishaholic]

Thank you friend. I am not planning to apply yet as my focus is on growing the channel right now.

[@Eggnog-xf5hs]

Is there a particular way to remove the air pump so that water won't get in?

[@Fishaholic]

Adding a check valve will stop water flowing towards the pump.

[@sydneykoontz6915]

HI! Love your tank! Where can I buy it?

[@Fishaholic]

I bought it from waterlife aquarium over 5 years ago. There should be quite a few aquarium shops selling something like this

[@FelishaSt.Pierre]

Someone may have already asked, but where did you buy the clips to hold the tubing to the side of the tank?

[@Fishaholic]

Hi, these came with the tank but you could find some airline tubing suction cups for cheap price on ebay. Air line is run through a hole in the suction cup which does the same job.

[@waseemadil9552]

Hi I’ve got the same airpump as the one in the video it makes excessive noise when it’s on high. Is that normal?

[@Fishaholic]

Hi Waseem, it's quite normal for pump to make noise due to vibration. I would suggest placing it on something soft like thick cloth or a sponge.

[@waseemadil9552]

Fishaholic thanks so much for your reply I know that they do make sound but the sound that I had was loud but I just opened it and bent the arms a little they were hitting the air chamber and that fixed it now it’s running with normal sound

[@Fishaholic]

You are most welcome Waseem. Glad you have sorted out problem yourself. Appreciate stopping by the channel.

[@neroli]

@@Fishaholic In case anyone else has same problem: If your air pump makes noises it's easy stopped by cutting a piece of "Anti -Slip Liner" (100's of uses around the home: For in Drawers, on shelves, in car, etc) And you can't hear a thing. Quieter than a mouse!! :) Enjoyed your site Waseem Adil. Thank you. :)

can i connect both air stone & sponge filter to one air pump??

Yes you can Joy, is it a twin outlet pump? Or you are planning to split single outlet flow into two.

[@jobinjoy7438]

well can i split single outlet into two, by use of split connectors? that would be cheaper for me as mine is a very small tank.

[@Barb5001]

Since oxygen is absorbed by water as the water comes into contact with air, why does not an air stone that allows increased contact with the water, allow the water to absorb more oxygen ? Yeas ago that was the main reason to install an air stone. I there any proof that an air stone does NOT increase oxygen, or are some just repeating false info?

[@Fishaholic]

Hey mate, air bubbles coming out of air stone will definitely increase oxygen absorption but the time it stays in contact doesn't help much. I would prefer Small bubbles that travel at slower speed.

[@911GAMING-j2w]

Can i use an air pump without filter?

[@Fishaholic]

Air pump will help with surface agitation. However, filter will help with actual filtration and cleansing of aquarium water. You could always use a sponge filter which will do both.

[@dimoflores6877]

You do not need to use the double line hose you can block the other airline hose and it will do nothing to the air pump it won't cause backup it won't cause nothing I have a double Airline pump too and I only use one Outlet to the air pump the other one I got blocked been having it blocked for the last 8 years and nothing has happened to my air pump believe it or not when you run double tubing like that into one Airline you're causing more air in the air tube and it could cause more damage to the air stone that way hope this helps

[@ara-.-1990]

My stone connected to air pump... But after 1 hours still no bubbles.. But i can feel the machine's vibrate

[@Fishaholic]

Hey Fara, is it a new pump and Whats the flow rate. Is it placed above the tank? The only possibility could be that pump is not strong enough to push air into the tank, faulty pump, air leaking from where you have connected air tube to pump.

[@LeSurrealDream]

Do you have a control valve hooked up? If the valved is shut off, no air will flow. Or it could be an issue with the tube connections. You should see bubbles right away, if not, something is wrong.

[@kellcoleStyleEnt]

Too much work in time what size that tank ?
