Not weighted as expected. The other end is open. No instructions.

It arrived and I installed it in my tank but it's not as heavy as I expected and I had to work hard to stay on the bottom of the tank. The other end of the bubbler is open. It comes with a plastic plug, but there's no other way to install it other than cut off the other end and then glue it on. Not sure as it came with zero instructions. I went to the Penn Plax website and nothing there either. I use it with a Tetra Whisper 40 pump and I seem to get bubbles through the wand but big bubbles come

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Some difficulties

Not the best quality and not fair advertising but enough for my needs

Bought 2 to aerate a 2000 gallon pond. One worked out of the box while the other had to be nailed down to open. I think the factory glue sealed the intake. (That's the only reason I'm giving 4 stars.) The diffuser floats at one end as other reviews have stated. I was able to fix this by tying 3 ounce pyramid weights to the ends. The kit also includes a second attachment that allows you to force air from either end for a more even distribution. However, I have found that just one ending isโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • Something else

Great product in aquarium pumps and filters

Overall I am very happy with this purchase but two things to note: 1) Upon opening this product had a strong plastic smell. Soak thoroughly before placing in the aquarium. The tube is very porous so do not use chemical cleaners or bleach as I can almost guarantee they will stay in. The smell was gone after 24 hours and I put it in the pool with no problem. 2) Yes, the bubbles won't come out in some places, FIRST. Depending on how you bend and position this thing, it will determine if all ofโ€ฆ

Lots of bubbles! by Fish & Aquatic Pets

I was a little nervous ordering this bubbler based on user reviews and ratings and I was really surprised at how well it worked. I bought some cheap green stick bubble walls and they were awful. I had tears, so the blisters came out in one place and not in others. So I threw it away and bought this one and it surprised me. Here's my plus for this product: lots of bubbles with two lines running towards it - has some weight to keep it at the bottom of the tank - you can bury the tube under theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Best in Niche
Cons
  • Safety

I put this in my tank this morning and a couple of little bubbles on each end played around with it for a while thought I'd give it a while but still nada. I have a NEW Tetra 150 pump (can handle 10 separate air lines) so I knew it wasn't my pump. Wanted to return it went and looked at the reviews and found that under 48" that said the end was hammered in production so I used a sharp nail and yes it was blocked and then a 1.4- mm precision screwdriver and kept twisting and pushing , reconnected

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • There are new competitors

Good blisters after repairing damage caused by poor factory packaging

Conversion from airstones to 55 gallon tank. When I received it I noticed it was damaged right in the middle where it was creased in the packaging. It is made of very soft rubber foam with micro-layers to allow air to escape. One end is plugged, but it comes with an air hose adapter if you want to cut off the cap to attach another hose (which I recommend if you're using the full length). The instructions say to use superglue to attach the air hose adapter. Apply glue liberally around the entire

Pros
  • Great product
Cons
  • Negative gift

Works great, looks great and donates oxygen.

Works great, looks great and adds lots of oxygen to the tank. READ THIS: For some reason the male connector (where you connect the air supply from the air pump) is NOT exposed and needs to be drilled before it will even work. Easy task for someone with a drill and a 1/8" bit, but if you don't have these items, good luck. Note: When drilling a hole, be extremely careful and slow as the drill bit will tear right through the air vent material as if it weren't there. I know this because I didโ€ฆ

  • Easy to read control panel

  • Almost never

Perfect for my 29 gallons!

I used to have a long bubble wand in my 29 gallon tank that annoyed me because it kept swimming to the top of the tank and making me dip my whole hand in to get it there bring it where i wanted it. This product is way better! It's long enough for me to have some extra length in my tank so I can bend and move it how I want to get the effect I want, and it's weighted so it pretty much stays where you put it put down and it can eject tons of bubbles provided you have a powerful air pump (or two)โ€ฆ

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • weak
