Review on 🐠 ALON Nano Air Pump for Fish Tank - Ultra Quiet USB Aquarium Air Pump with Hanging Buckle and Check Valve by Fred Projectfoundation

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect and even more

I put a neocaradina nano bio shrimp bowl on my bedside table and I want this pump to run as quietly as possible. It's the quietest air pump ever. The mini sponge filter is actually noisier due to the bubbles and if they ever make larger versions of this pump I will be purchasing this to replace all of my aquarium's current pumps. This is a smaller pump and therefore less powerful, I use it in 2.5g so I would stick with 1-3g reservoirs for this pump (make sure you find a mini sponge filter that works with it, I found a mini sponge filter here that says it's for 1-3g tanks) It's just an added bonus but the pump also comes with a weak airline and air stone which is a really nice addition, especially for those who don't know how to use air pumps + foam filters. I was able to build a DIY drip acclimator unit out of these two devices and it saved me $10! Simply attach an air stone to one side of the channel and a few inches up the other end. , tie a simple knot. Suck some water from the side of the knot and boom, you have a great drip acclimatizer, tighten the knot to slow the drip as needed. All in all it was a great and worthwhile purchase. It's completely silent, comes with some great extras and comes with a warranty.

Pros
  • Powerful USB Air Pump: This high-performance air stone can provide enough oxygen for aquariums up to 13 gallons, making the pump strong and durable.
Cons
  • Clarity
