How To: Setup an Air Pump and Air Stone in an Aquarium

In this video i will demonstrate how to setup an air pump and air stone in an aquarium. It is a very simple process, all you need is an air pump, air tube and air stone to complete aquarium air pump setup. Now the question is how to set up an air pump? Since most of them come in one piece so no assembly is required. In addition, new air pump these days have multiple outlets so if you buy a pump with twin outlets and you only want to install one air stone in the tank then i have demonstrated how you can convert two outlets into one in this video.

Do aquariums need air pumps? The answer is Yes and No. It depends on tank, plants and fish. In a bare bottom tank like mine, most of the oxygenation happens in the filter. In general speaking, air bubbles doesn't oxygenate the water, it is the disturbance created on the surface layer of the water that add oxygen to the water. So air stone and air pump does help in oxygenation.

Once the setup is complete then installing an air stone is very easy, just attach the air tube from the air pump to the air stone and turn the power ON. I hope you have enjoyed this simple DIY video of installing air pump and air stone in a fish tank.
