Submersible Pump AND Aerator? UPDATE!

[mrsclem]

Exactly- Doesn't say how deep it can be placed so I have mine up on crates. Foam filter and ceramic beads have to be cleaned at least once a week. The LED lights are impressive at night but are on all the time so not sure how long they will last.

there must be an airline that draws in air from above the water line. if you wanted to go deeper with it . you could add a small airpump out side the pond in addition to the things setup.

Yeh there is an airline on them there are video's on one sight that shows you set up .But I would still go cheap route.LED's last a long time I have ones in my house that come on at dusk and go off at dawn and they are 9 years old .But under water you would have to pull it up to clean the LED's .I know the first air pump I bought was from petco 4 airports and all the stuff with it 28 dollars .Still works to this day .

At $119. this was a costly mistake. I don't normally use air pumps in my ponds but this summer we had problems - SO-- PITA cleaning this thing. May put it in my 50 gal. preform up front. Did score on a patio pond kit for $99. for the tropical plants in the basement this winter.
