Hi,

Thanks again.....do you have any experience of the penn plax bubble walls? I
use aquatics-online a lot and they are very good... what I need is something
that will last a long time without clogging - how lond did your aqua-fizz
work for?

OK, Thanks to Elaine I now have ordered my pump - who can recommend a
lond airstone 30 - 45 cm to produce a line of small bubbles (fizz?).


Google is treating me well again (it's kind of a fun challenge - like a
treasure hunt!). Here's a UK mail order site that has the air curtains so
you can see what I'm talking about.

Aqua Fizzzz gives bubbles like a standard airstone. I used to have a 6"
one in one of my tanks. Hagen air curtains give somewhat finer bubbles in
a nice wall. I wouldn't call it fizz, though. Ceramic airstones produce
very fine bubbles more towards a fizz, and wooden skimmer airstones really
fizz - until they get clogged with algae and stop working at all.

I've not seen the Interpet or Algarde ones in action since those brands
are rarer in the US.
