Review: Good value, powerful, air pump - This is a powerful air pump for aquariums, purchased in January 2025 and still going strong. I still use under gravel filters after 40 plus years. I need decent pumps to run the filters and I also need a back up pump. I have purchased three of these pumps to run two different tanks and as a back up. These air pumps are not very noisy but they do vibrate, if it touches something can create noise. The produce a lot of air and are very reliable. Very low power consumption so will not drive your electricity bill through the roof. The pump will, by the very nature of how it works, produce a small amount of heat so I recommend it being positioned in a ventilated area. I have often stored these pumps in the cupboard of an aquarium cabinet. Remember to buy an anti siphon filter if you do this and the pump is below the water level. Next day delivery and great value. over the years I have used a lot of All Pond Solutions products and can recommend them.
Review: Great! - As expected. All ponds products are always good.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great!
*by S***N on 12 March 2026*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good value, not too loud!
*by C***E on 30 April 2020*

I am actually pretty happy with this pump, reading the reviews I was sceptical that it would be too loud, there is a slight buzz but it isn't too bad at all and is great for the price. I have my fish tank in the kitchen so you can't really hear it over everything else anyway! I would recommend getting an ornament to go with this rather than just using the stones as it looks so pretty! It can run up to two air flows at once but I just have a 30l tank for my goldfish so run at the lowest setting with one. I bought the pump as he kept swimming to the top for air, he hardly does this at all now so has definitely helped with the oxygen levels in my tank. Please note, it isn't very clear how to attached the non return valves (they don't just slot into the pump) I had to improvise and cut a bit of the tube to attach it, seems to work fine though!
