    Default Where can i find those looong Airstones

    Need to get those 6-8 inch long air stones, anyone know where to find them? Using them to aerate k1 media in sump...would it be the same to use multiple 5 inch Airstones? Thanks

    No aquatic creatures were harmed in the creation of this signature, although a large number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced.

    Thanks...the only long ones ken sells are like 1-2 bucks each. I don't know how well those cheap ones will work...bought a cheap disc air stone once and it was terrible. David, do you know if I could just use a bunch of the 5 inch ones instead of 3-4 12 inch ones ?

    Sorry, but I have no idea. I don't use k1 media or sumps.

    Kens fish, jehmco, marine depot, aquatic Eco, etc. yes you could use smaller ones you would just need to play around with placement.

    I have a K1 filter and use one of those Air Curtains that are a small diameter tube, i just drilled the holes a bit larger so it made nice big bubble to move the K1 works fine.
