Air pump suggestions

[theyangman]

I am looking to run two 6" air stone discs in my 180 gallon tank.

I love the look of them, and I want to give it a whirl.

So I have them hooked up to a TOPFIN AIR-8000 pump, and the results are less than stellar. What pump do you guys recomend to get a STRONG stream of bubbles out of the discs?

Laguna air pump kits are cheap and effective.

Which one? Im looking for specific links or names and model numbers. This topfin air pump blows (and not in a good way) lol

There are like 10 on that page, forgive my newbie-ness, but which one on this page would be the best?

For cost wise, the $25.95 one is good.

Cool, thanks for the info. Any other suggestions?

I have the 15 running 2.5" air stones in my display tank (which is 4' deep) and a 10" spray bar in my sump.

These pumps are quiet and a good value for the quality of the pump...I'm really happy with mine.

Here is a question,

I notice a lot of pumps have like more than one air nozzle outlet. What do I do with all the spares? I will only be running two air stones discs.
