Underwater River Air Pump Small Review

So I saw this and thought it was going to be cool. I wanted to upgrade my 5.5 to 10 gallons. So that looked like a good chunk to add. So when I got it everything was there. So if you have trouble with the suction cups, gravel them first. There are almost no instructions, but it's easy to understand. So I had problems with blisters, they were so big. So I read the review and someone said they put holes in this rubber air stone like thing. I did this but I still had problems and the review said…

However, I deduct a star for the lousy suction cups. After replacing them with better quality mugs from the dollar store, I was ready to go.

I tested the pump with a short hose and a tiny air stone and it couldn't even create that bubble. So I'm not sure if the pump will ever bubble. I think it would be beneficial if they stopped selling and either kept the price or lowered the price of the product. Speaking of price, $15 is really good for what you get. You get multiple…
