2. Air pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_pump

   An air pump is a pump for pushing air. Examples include a bicycle pump, pumps that are used to aerate an aquarium or a pond via an airstone; a gas compressor used to power a pneumatic tool, air horn or pipe organ; a bellows used to encourage a fire; a vacuum cleaner and a vacuum pump. All air pumps contain a part that moves (vane, piston ...

3. Airlift pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airlift_pump

   Airlift pump. An airlift pump, powered by compressed air, raises fluid by entraining gas to reduce its density. G: Gravel or solids. An airlift pump is a pump that has low suction and moderate discharge of liquid and entrained solids. The pump injects compressed air at the bottom of the discharge pipe which is immersed in the liquid.

4. Aquarium filter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquarium_filter

   Air-driven corner filter. Aquarium filters are critical components of both freshwater and marine aquaria. [1] [2] [3] Aquarium filters remove physical and soluble chemical waste products from aquaria, simplifying maintenance. Furthermore, aquarium filters are necessary to support life as aquaria are relatively small, closed volumes of water ...

5. Common goldfish - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_goldfish

   Contrary to popular belief, air pumps and airstones do not oxygenate directly and rely on bubbles breaking the surface to transfer oxygen to the fish's environment. Ideally, the water pump should push 10x the volume of the tank or pond plus an extra 100lph or gph. Goldfish will die without sufficient dissolved oxygen in the water.

6. Protein skimmer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_skimmer

   Protein skimming removes certain organic compounds, including proteins and amino acids found in food particles and fish waste, by using the polarity of the protein itself. . Due to their intrinsic charge, water-borne proteins are either repelled or attracted by the air/water interface and these molecules can be described as hydrophobic (such as fats or oils) or hydrophilic (such as salt, sugar ...

7. Calcium reactor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_reactor

   This air pump is connected to an airstone in the sump or main tank. If the probe detects a low pH level, the pump activates. The bubbles raise the pH by dissipating the CO 2 gas. Since the pH inside the reactor is much lower than the pH in the aquarium, you run the risk of lowering the aquarium pH by running a calcium reactor if that low pH isn ...
