no idea i bet they work using an impeller instead of air. Either way, I want to know if they are any good.

per the description "Air is pulled down through a length of tubing (included) and then emitted through a foam diffuser on the top of the pump."

yeah... it takes it in by venturi or a simple airline.. and draws the air down and breaks it up with the impeller..so its a powerhead/airator
