To make an air stone, use a pump.
I used it to fill a pet water fountain. I have a small pump similar to this in an indoor fountain. If your fountain is small, you can reduce the flow; if it is larger, you can restrict or open the flow by turning a small knob on the side of the pump. It's a powerful little creature.
A 1/3 inch (8mm) nozzle is included with this pump, as well as three other attachments. 3' I/D 1/4" flexible tubing (so sutiable tubing I/D: 3' I/D: 1/4" I/D: 1/4" I/D: 1/4" I/D: 1/4" I/D: 1/4" 1/4" , 0. 24"- It's fine to use 27" soft tubing because it's flexible.)
The maximum rate, according to the box insert, is 50 gph. It does not set a minimum requirement. However, the flow of water is controlled by a lever on the side of the pump. The pump does an excellent job of moving water through my small tabletop fountain when the lever is fully open.

I'm currently using both of them in my classroom for little moss desktop gardens, and they're perfect for desktop fountains or terrariums. In December, I created these gardens as a way to provide a relaxing environment for students who were studying for final exams and then taking them. They've been in constant use since then and are still going strong, despite running dry a couple of times (not recommended, but a plus!). br>br>I like how the rate (gph) can be adjusted. Even with teens constantly fiddling with them, the suction cups have worked well to keep the pump in place. They're both housed in rectangular, flat dishes that measure 10 inches by 7 inches by two inches. 5 in. Yes, they can work in water that shallow! br>br>Overall, these have left an impression on me.
reviews of 5 stars My two came in perfect condition and work flawlessly. Using them for a few tenths of a percent of a percent Betta fish in 7 gallon nano aquariums. So far, it's been quiet and dependable.
In November of this year, I bought a pair of Pulaco pumps for a DIY cat fountain. Because the fountain is activated by motion, the pump only runs on occasion. The pumps sometimes lose suction despite the motor running for no apparent reason. The tubing and copper pipe connecting them are clear, and the motor isn't clogged in any way. This has been the case with both pumps. It's not easy to disassemble the pump to inspect the insides, but fiddling with the flow rate switch and cycling the power restored the pump's functionality. I'm stumped as to how to make it go away for good.
I found some low-cost ish hydroponics kits with obnoxiously loud and vibrating air pumps I figured I'd give these a shot because my Aerogarden has a water pump. They're so quiet that I can't even hear them. I know they're working because I can see the water moving and feel a slight vibration when I touch the hydroponics tubs, which is quieter than the refrigerator's background hum and the mechanical timer I use for the grow lights. What a fantastic opportunity. br>I cut out little squares from a Tetra Bio-Filter to make filters. I used rubber bands to secure the bag filters that I use in my pet fountain.
Be careful who you buy from. The company left me feeling a little underwhelmed. I bought a set of two, but one of them was missing the hose connector, so it was useless to me. It comes from a very soft hose that will do whatever it wants, regardless of what you want. Hose that is of low quality. The pump, on the other hand, does not deliver water to the claimed height. On the highest setting, the screen is only about 3 inches wide. This product is not suitable for medium or large fountains. I have another one of the same size from a different company that shoots up to 2 feet in the air, so when you put the hose on it, you get good pressure on a medium to large garden fountain. That is not the case with this one. Suction cups are excellent, so I only gave it two stars. This is a company I will never purchase from again. When contacted about their unfinished product, the company acted foolishly.
He enjoys drinking water that is running. My previous pump had died, and these were the perfect fit for the space and requirement. It takes some tinkering to get the right flow, but once you do, you're good to go. Happy kitty with plenty of water!.
Other replacement pumps for my outdoor fountain would pump too much water, causing it to splash out and eventually run dry, causing the pump to burn out. So far, it appears that this one is retaining the majority of the water in the bowl.
We bought these to make a fountain for our cat, who drinks a lot more when the water is "running. " It's perfect; there are suction cups on the bottom to cling to the dish's bottom, and we propped it up against a rock in case it came loose. The flow can be adjusted depending on how high you want the water to rise and how hard you want it to come out. With the second one, I also made a small decorative fountain out of a bowl and a few large flat stones. For the time being, I had to disassemble it until I could get a larger, deeper bowl, but it was fun, if not for the fact that the bubbles were soaking the surrounding area.
