Aquarium air stones are not just for decoration. An air stone
plays a vital role in the wellbeing of your fish, pumping oxygen back into the water and allowing the fish to
'breathe'.
Live plants absorb CO2 and produce oxygen whilst it is light - all
well and good for your fish. However, once the light goes out, the process reverses. The plants will
emit CO2 and absorb oxygen, starving fish of air. If you have ever seen
your fish gasping at the surface, you will realise that they need air to survive.
In a heavily planted, it is important to restore the depleted by
plants once the lights go out. You may wish to use a timer to set your aquarium air pump to come on once the
lights are switched off (we have a range of timers at discount prices - just click on the 'Maintenance' link to the
left). Alternatively, you may wish to leave the aquarium air stone on all day - this will be beneficial to
both plants and fish. Aquarium air stones are so quiet they can barely be heard. The air passes into
the tank via a discreet rubber or plastic airline which is simple to install and maintain.
NB It is important to use a non-return valve with the
aquarium air stone to prevent water siphoning back down the airline whilst allowing a continuous flow of air to
pass through to your air brick.
