I was looking around and could only find aireators for tanks up to 100 gallons. I am looking for an aireator to aireate my DIY build. What can I use? Only thing I can find large enough to aireate that would be a pond aireator. Any ideas? Please post any links to it.

If it changes anything the dimensions are 94" long by 48" wide by 40" tall. I think it would be awesome to have a huge bubble strip going along the full back of the tank! I know how to make bubble strips but I don't know what to power it with.

You'd be better to research this. Understanding how to aerate your tank water will save you many a headache. Adequate surface agitation is usually suffice.

Okay so I won't need an aireator? I will have constant flow from a filter and a sump return. I thought that won't aireate it. :confused:

Also those bubble wands places along the back of your tank can cause real headaches... Mine kept splashing water on the hood, where on e accumilated trickled down the back of my tank making me think i had a leak... So just be aware of the placement if you get one...

Again RESEARCH, your lack of undersdtanding of basic things is why your threads always turn to crap. You need to ask questions once you at least have a base knowledge to understand the answers given.
