So as the amount of tanks grow in the fish room I have been looking into getting a large linear air pump. Right now we are running several smaller ones but I refuse to buy anymore small ones. I'm considering an Alita brand pump as I have read really good reviews. My issue is that I'm not sure which size to get. I don't want a huge one where I'm going to need to set up a valve to release excess air so that it doesn't damage the pump itself. That being said, the fish room is pretty far from finished/furnished so I might have to do just that.
Right now I have room for about 20 or so 10g tanks on the main 2 shelves my husband built. In addition there are also several small shrimp tanks, and 3 20-30g tanks that I would also like to have hooked into the system. Can I buy a pump with room to grow without having to have a ball valve to release excess air? Any suggestions or what size pump? Most everything in the fish room is either growing out pr my dwarf cichlid/apisto pairs.
It's all still a work in progress.
The new rack won't have 10s like pictured but rather 5s and 2.5s for the shrimp.
