Oxygen Question

[Magzire]

Hey guys. I have 500 litre pond and just curious about 02 levels.

I'm using a Laguna 3500 filter than comes with a sprinkler system. Also on the shaft it allows for an extra hose to be connected to go out to a water feature.

Is this a enough to get oxygen into the pond?

At the moment there are 10 4" goldfish.

Thing is those fountain heads get clogged fast so watch it and clean the head with a brush .Hopefully you will know soon if it works

 

[Magzire]

Besides clogging, it will do the job?

Not sure about the O2 level but ten four inch goldfish in 500 liters/132 gallons is a lot of fish especially as they grow.

Oxygen levels should be sufficient for now. I would recommend investing in a Salifert Dissolved Oxygen Test Kit. You will need it.
Those little fountain heads do very little in the way of adding Oxygen to the water. They are mainly for decoration.

40" of fish won't be 40" for long! 132 gallons will be a tight squeeze. My ten little fish are now about
185 - 200" ... They grow quickly!

I have two airpumps supplying both air to my filters and air to my pond thats three large airstones each to my second and third filters and six airstones to my last filter.
The other airpumps job is to supply air to the bubbler on my ponds bottom drain personally I would rethink my pond and build one thats larger

I use 12 air stones on my aerator and 2 are in each filter and one in the lily pond and the rest are in the pond at different heights from bottom to midway up and close to the top of the water
