hmmm.....not what i was expecting i thought this would be about how long fish lived with only a air pump on the tank...but this is good 2
Air pump lifespan?
- Thread starter FreshyFresh
- Start date
I just about refuse to use anything that requires air pump any more. Don't think I have ever gotten more than 4-6 months out of one, on top of which they make noxious noise. My office/bedroom/fishroom has to pretend to be a call center during working hours and detectable noise whether human, animal, electronic or air-moving will get me fired, so, bah humbug.
That said the turtle-shaped whisper (forget model number and can't lay hands on it right now under the rubble) lasted the longest. Best wishes to yours.
your loss. i have air pumps that are 10 years old. i am almost slowly on air pumps now.
Mg- what make/model if you don't mind me asking? I assume this is with some re-building in between?
FWIW, my replacement whisper has been flawless.
well now i am on to bigger pumps. i use this now.

i can find a picture of the medium size one i had. i got it at my local fish club super cheap. it was old then and i used it for 3-4 years. i still have it around here somewhere just not sure where.
here is one of the smaller pumps i use to use. i think it was like a maxium or something. i had a couple some that i could control the air flow as well.
what are you gonna stock it with or is that a old pic and you have it stocked with fish and all that good stuff.
whoa...i forget sometimes people take tanks down and dont just restock it.aww man i gotta do my water change i was aspose to do it at 8 but i had homework be back in about 40-60 minutes?
