Air pumps

[captmicha]

How do I tell the strength of an air pump? What's it measured in, watts? How do I know what strength I need?

I don't know if I'm imagining things but I think they also have "flow rate" as a gauge (at least for asian products)

Some pumps do have adjustable flow rates so that might be more suitable for you

Good luck

some pupms are rated by the amount of air they pump. eg. 2 liters of air per minute etc. they are generally low on wattage. about 2-5 watts per hour.

most will give you the rating. just go online and look. the higher rating just means how deep it can push the air.
