Aquascape 75000 Pond Air 2 (Double Outlet Aeration Kit)

This aeration pump lost all its power after just 2 months of use in an outdoor pond. The discs were cleaned as instructed in the company video with vinegar and a brush but that didn't help. There is no after-sales service of this product in India, nor do you get any spare parts, especially if you buy from STS Shop (seller) who refused to help. I bought this because i thought its a good brand but it couldn't even aerate my 3000 Litre tank. Instead, go for an Indian make or a Hailea pump.

Después de 3 meses de uso dejo de funcionar. Me falta contactar al vendedor para ver que procede

Our pond never had an aerator. I ordered this because I was worried about all the algae being produced and how it takes up oxygen. When using a pump to infuse oxygen into the water, the water gets oxygen by exposure to the air, but when the water goes back into the pond, it doesn't go to the deep parts of the pond. As soon as I put the aerators in, my fish started to swim around deeper. It really clears the water up too. We have a pretty big pond, maybe 800 gallons, and two of these seem more than sufficient. You can see all the bubbles at the surface continually moving outward in a spherical manner. The fish love to swim around the stream and even right through the stream. It's very quit too. I have had it running all winter. There was one time it got really cold and the aerator was not able to keep the pond from freezing over, so for people in cold climates, I would still keep a deicer in the pond. The product is pretty durable; I just keep it on a piece of brick near the pond with a plastic Tupperware container to house it, and it has held up in rain, snow, etc. This is the best way to give your fish oxygen - well except in the summer, having tons of plants is vital... but having this in my pond, I'm always rest assured that the fish will never suffocate or be stuck gasping for air at the surface constantly - by the way, if your fish come to the surface and leave a little trail of bubbles, then an aerator is a good idea. You can see the size of my pond in the pics. Update: I've now had the aerator for two and a half years. I should have brought it in for the super cold weather. It all held up pretty good but the plug went through a lot of wear and tear and eventually fell off. I'm hoping I can get a replacement. I think it's my fault though because I left it in negative thirty weather and it froze and cracked. Also one of the aerators froze and partially cracked. Just a warning to consider bringing it in for freezing weather conditions, and reinforcing the outlet part. The housing unit held up under like five feet of ice and snow so its a pretty damn good product.

I wanted an air pump and air stones for my pond. My pond consists of a partially buried 350 gallon stock tank, with a 20 gallon lined whiskey barrel waterfall, and a 55 gallon bio-filter. I mounted the air pump up high under my elevated deck, which is behind my pond. I made a shelf for the pump, drilled holes in that shelf for the electrical cord and tubing to route downwards. I also drilled additional holes under the pump for added ventilation. I placed a plastic shoe storage box upside down over the pump. I used four screws as "legs" to give the pump an added gap for ventilation while still giving it optimum protection from the elements. The hoses that are included are very nice quality. I ran these two hoses inside of 1/2" drip irrigation line and routed that parallel to the intake and outlet pipes for the bio-filter and buried all of the pipes. Running the air hoses inside of the drip irrigation line keeps the air hoses from getting pinched. For my specific need I then attached this drip irrigation line to a barbed fitting and that attached to 1/2" PVC pipe. I ran that pipe through the side of the stock tank through a 1/2" uniseal. The result is that the tubing is nice and safe inside of the drip irrigation line. It is buried. It is all HIDDEN. The pump is pretty quiet. It's not noticeable where I have it placed up under my deck. It's about 6 feet above the ground. The waterfall and my other water feature in the yard drown out any air pump sound. The pump puts out a decent amount of bubbles. My stock tank pond is two feet deep and the air stones are resting on the bottom. It's a good amount of aeration for this size of pond. I don't think that I would be impressed with this pump for a larger pond. This is really a large aquarium air pump. It's not going to do much for a large pond. For my purposes, which is about 375-400 gallons of total water volume, it is a perfect pump. If you have a BIG pond, you probably would be disappointed in this pump's performance. I doubt that it would produce much air if the air stones were in water more than two feet deep. Oh yeah, I thought I should mention that I ran this pump and air stones as a test BEFORE I installed it. There is NO difference in airflow after I installed it in the drip irrigation line and buried it. I thought some of you might think the performance was affected by my installation. It was not affected at all. To sum up: I am happy. I have a small pond. If you have a pond of 600+ gallons you would probably want to go with a more powerful set up. If your pond is in the thousands of gallons range then this pump would be very inadequate. I am 100% satisfied with this pump for MY size pond. When the pump dies I might replace it with this same one. We shall see. So far, so good...
