Air pump needed
hi guys.
just fired up my pond and the air pump that i got (cheap Chinese unit) is not good and barely coping with supplying the bd let alone the moving bed as well. therefore i am in the lookout for a replacement.
has anyone got an air pump they want to move on? anything 80 lpm and up.
Thanks in advance.

i bought one of these a few months back,doing a fantastic job churning my nexus over,tried it on my spindrifter at 6ft but didnt like the jacuzzi effect lol,so put my hiblow 40 back on,and for the price it seems a decent unit,andi Jebao PA Series Koi Fish Pond Eco Air Pump Oxygen Weatherproof 35-100 LPM | eBay

same i got the PA100,too powerful just for spindrifter,so you should be good for what you want it for,i take it you have a valve to direct flow to each of bd and bio chamber,i only got it if im honest whilst i order parts i need for my hiblow 80 i had on nexus before,but i dont think im going to rush getting them now,doing a great job so far,andi

i have just received the pump and turned it on.
wow what a difference.
the last ump was meant to be 80lpm and this 100lpm but this easily runs the bottom drain and the moving bed filter.
if this lasts time then it will be a very good buy for the price

Running heater at low temp?
Covering the pond with polycarb should be enough to stop water temps dipping below 6C for the most...
