Are air stones good for saltwater tanks?

While air stones may be good for improving gas exchange in saltwater tanks, they can contribute to salt creep and can negatively affect the aesthetics of your tank. Protein skimmers, wave makers, and other equipment that promotes surface agitation may be more effective in boosting oxygen levels.

How long do air stones last in a saltwater aquarium?

Air stones generally last for about six months in a saltwater aquarium, though numerous factors can reduce their lifespan. Some air stones are more susceptible to clogging than others, especially in a high-mineral environment like a saltwater tank. Cleaning your air stones regularly can help extend their longevity.

Can fish sleep with saltwater aquarium air pumps on?

Yes, fish can generally sleep with saltwater aquarium air pumps on. They're unlikely to be bothered by the sound of the pump, but if it creates too much flow or surface agitation, it could disrupt their swimming and resting habits.

Can you over-oxygenate a saltwater fish tank?

Though uncommon, it is possible to over-oxygenate a saltwater fish tank. Natural factors such as warm temperatures, exposure to sunlight, and overabundance of algae can contribute to high oxygen levels, but the biggest risk for over-oxygenation is adding pure oxygen directly to the tank.

How often should you replace the air pumps in a saltwater aquarium?

You should replace the air pumps in a saltwater aquarium when they stop working properly or start showing signs of wear and tear. With proper maintenance, air pumps generally last for 2-3 years. If your pumps start making unusual noises or fail to operate consistently, it may be time to replace them.
