Thread: Venturis

I had them on my pond for years, worked extremely well but yes, the noise could be a bit intrusive. Seem to have gone out of fashion, although still seem them used on aquarium set ups.

I use one on my pond and no probs.
Before the venturi it is T' d off to another valved return so it is controlled.
No noise as it's at the far side of the pond and returning near the water surface.

It turnes the water nicely.

I have used them in the pond, long time since, but still use one in my QT, a little aquarium filter with venturi, just for extra circulation and aeration, the filter itself does FA but it's cheaper to run and quieter than most air pumps
