Product Information

Air stones and bubble discs improve and aerate your aquarium water and offer a decorative addition to your tank. They are usually bought as an odd on to an aquarium air pump to remove toxins from the water and improve the water health for your fish by increasing oxygen. Properly oxygenated water is crucial for fish and all aquatic life. Air stones and bubble discs have many other benefits. They offer an inexpensive solution and can be easily replaced or added to, making them a great option for people new to building an aquarium or pond. If the bubbles on the fish are very small and resemble salt grain, this may be a sign of a disease called Ich. This is a parasitic disease that is also known as white spot disease. This disease is deadly, but treatment and recovery are possible if it is detected early. All Bubbles Aren’t Bad So, don’t introduce an aquarium bubbler to a tank that contains fish or invertebrate species that originate from still waters. Final thoughts

When the fish’s internal organs are affected, death often results without any obvious signs. Other fish suffer chronic effects, such as poor appetite, buoyancy problems, and reduced activity. In those cases, visible bubbles can usually be seen. CausesIf you see bubbles forming on top of dead algae, then these are likely ammonia bubbles. Your best solution, at this point, is to remove as much of the dead algae as possible. Generally, the male fish create these nests, regardless of whether any females are present. All the betta fish I’ve ever owned spent ages building bubble nests and guarding them, presumably in the hope that a female betta would happen along.

Repeated water changes, a good water conditioner and monitoring the aquarium closely with a good test kit, will help you win this battle. Bubble nests made by fish Alternatively, water samples from your tank can be tested for gas saturation, although a normal sample doesn’t completely rule out the disease. Treatment The increased surface movement also improves the water circulation around the aquarium, which pulls more water through the filtration system, helping to keep the tank clean and sanitary for your fish. But before you jump to this worst-case scenario and buy a new one, consider some of the other reasons it might not be working. 2. Bacteria ClogGuess what happens when you add cold water to the warm water in your tropical fish tank during an unclean water change? There are several types of aquarium air stones and bubblers that you may wish to consider for your aquarium. The different types serve different needs. Flexible Bubble Walls In addition, if you trim your aquarium plants to keep them tidy, “pearling” can happen, where tiny bubbles escape from the cut in the plant. That process eventually stops without intervention. Dead Algae Simply bend the bubbler wand to the desired shape, and bury it under the substrate. Alternatively, fit the wand above the gravel so that it works as a nightlight, creating the perfect ambiance for nocturnal fish species so that you can view them more easily.
