Morning dave well looks like the are still all breathing thank god will try and do water change this morning but have a family do all day. Might order the air pump on line at least I know I will get it. The one I was going to get was a pond one think it was about £55 then the air stone. In all the years I have had my pond I have never had this problem before very frustrating and concerning but I am sure we will get it sorted. Let's hope the weather is not to hot today that will help.

Had a quick look around for you found a supplier that will supply free airstones and valves to stop syphoning of water back to the airpump for £35.00 that gives you four airstones to play with:-

You'll also note that all postage is free on the UK mainland , its not a make I know but I've discussed cheaper airpumps on another forum before.
The general concensus was that they are just as good as the more expensive models so I recomend this as a first airpump they supply the manifold for the running of extra lines which is a big plus
Did you guys get much in the way of thunder lightening torrential rain and hail yesterday or did it miss Essex ?
