FAQs

How do I clean the SuperFish Ceramic Air Stone?

Rinse the air stone under clean water or soak it in a diluted bleach solution (1 part bleach to 9 parts water) for about 30 minutes, then rinse thoroughly. Allow it to air dry completely before reusing.

What size airline tubing does it use?

The SuperFish Ceramic Air Stone is compatible with both 4mm and 12mm airline tubing.

Is this air stone suitable for both freshwater and saltwater?

Yes, the SuperFish Ceramic Air Stone is suitable for both freshwater and saltwater aquariums and ponds.

How long does the air stone last?

The lifespan of the air stone depends on water conditions and usage. With proper care and cleaning, it should last for several months to a year.

Why is the air stone not sinking?

Ensure the air stone is fully saturated with water before placing it in the aquarium or pond. The flat disk design should help it sink. If the weight isn't enough you can try adding a small amount of weight on the stone.

What type of air pump do I need?

You'll need an air pump with a suitable output for the volume of your aquarium or pond. Check the pump's specifications to ensure it's compatible.

Troubleshooting

Air stone not producing bubbles.

Check the air pump and airline tubing for any blockages or leaks. Also, ensure the air stone is properly connected. If the stone is new, it may need to be soaked in water for a few hours to become fully saturated.

Bubbles are large and inconsistent.

The air stone might be clogged. Try cleaning the stone. Check the air pump output and the tubing for any kinks or damage.

Air pump is noisy.

Check the pump placement and ensure it's not vibrating against a surface. Consider using a sound dampening pad if necessary.
