Air Pump

[bps11208]

After reading this i am thinking of setting up air pump at 4 corner of the tank
But when i vision it. It look kind of overloaded

Just a sponge filter in each of my shrimp tanks and that plenty of
air and circulation.

Yup... have remove it.... but they seem to like it though.... they were swimming towards and within the bubbles...

Be it for getting rid of the oil layer or providing more oxygen for the shrimps.

TS, you may want to buy a shut off valve to control the amount of air push to the air stone. I am doing that for my air pump currently.

is the shut off valve easily found at any lfs?

I prefer to use sponge filter (bio filter) for shrimp civilization. Though I find that some shrimps like to sit on the sponge or underneath but I find that it helps to clear cloudy water when I remove the gravel.
