How to get that fine MIST of bubbles???

[tcarswell]

My 20 gallon looks really good with a bubblewall behind it but I would rather it had more smaller bubbles. similar to a diffuser but along 8" of the back wall. Is there any specific bubble wall that achieves this or anyone have any ideas ? I am using a tetra whisper 10-30

you can try diy-ing it by using a small pvc pipe and drilling small holes on it

Use limewood air diffusers for the finest bubbles.

Sintered materials start getting expensive for fine bubble.

You can buy the wood diffusers on line or at alot of salt water shops. They are more popular with skimmers I beleive. Also a larger pump will help and also maybe needed with the wood diffusers.

Just remember you will never get it as fine as you will in a saltwater tank.

My 75 has loads of small bubbles in it. I think it is because the pump in the sump gets a little bit of air in it.
