Proper aeration circulates water, increases oxygen levels and facilitates gas exchange. Water circulation eliminates dead spots and assists movement of debris into the skimmer. Increased oxygen promotes plant and animal health, beneficial bacteria growth, and biological filtration. Gas exchange eliminates toxins and reduces chance of fish death during winter by keeping a hole in the ice. If your fountain or waterfall is not oxygenating enough, or if you plan to keep fish throughout winter, this is a necessary addition. Compressors should be covered during winter months.
These bundles are not boxed kits from any manufacturer, but were personally designed by Practical Garden Ponds for quality and value. Components may ship separately. They include:
- Hiblow® industrial grade air pumps renowned in the septic industry for durability and quality
- Matala diffusers that are fish-friendly, produce medium bubbles and reduce back-pressure
- Weighted air hose that will not kink or crush
- Necessary connectors, such as hose clamps and manifolds
