Does my aquarium starter kit need an air pump?
Question: Today I bought an aquarium starter kit 5 gal Walmart (AQUA know-how). It comes with a power filter (Tetra Whisper Power Filter 5-15 gal). Should I get an air pump for my kit? In fact, what is the purpose of an air pump?
Answer: As wide as your filter is causing the water pump air is not necessary.
Pumps and air bubbles are much Bonny decorative, this is a reservoir of oxygenated surface movement, and not just the bubbles.
