Title: Wtb: air pump
Post by: Hobbiest on January 06, 2016, 02:36:45 PM
Looking for one air pump to run 7-10 outlets including some in a deep tank. Something like a Dynamaster Piston pump (that capacity or better).

I just picked up one of these off amazon and LOVE it. thing rocks, throws out some serious air for into pump.

put a piece of tubing on the intake and put some sponge material in it to quiet it down and you're in business.

Thank you I saw those but did not know if they were any good. How many outlets are you able to run off of it?

Great. I ordered one for $29 plus $13 shipping. Thanks for the review as I was interested in these but had little information.

Here ya go boss. Good call by the way. Hooked it up today. I am running 4 air stones one of which is a wand and a Hydrosponge. The last tube on the left I am bleeding extra air from to save the pump too much wear and tear.

Thanks

Nice! Just replied to your pm, good to see you got it up and running and are happy with it 👍

Its a great pump and cant beat the price.
