I've come across a pond aerator, solar powered, for £39.95:

No maker mentioned. Would it work? And, more important, would it do any

I would be a bit concerned about the air pressure being too low to
aerate more than a very shallow head of water. Note that the picture
shows aquarium air stones at about a three inch depth.


Good point, Steve. Maybe ineffective, then.
