Health issues with "bubble walls"?

[jcardona1]

I'm a believer in airstones, there's no doubt that they are beneficial, I'm asking about the bubble strips that create a wall of bubbles in the tank.

same thing really. youre saying that you think they make the tank 'full of air' and this isnt the case. the bubbles travel up to surface where they pop. youre not adding dissolved oxygen with a bubble strip

short answer is no, no problems presented

my puffers love the bubble wall, they take turns riding it up to the surface. good mental exercise for fish also.

just like a powerhead keeps the water moving

The only issues that can arise from this is if it creates too strong of a current for fish that prefer sitting water. This is pretty uncommon for a bubble aerator to do (more common issue with powerheads).

Indeed, as others have said, countless species of fish that hang in all levels of the water seem to enjoy occasionally playing in the bubbles.
