aquarium air stone bar fish tank air diffuser with air control valve, silent and subtle design, 6 inch length wide compatibility (ideal for guppy, shrimp, exotic species)

The media could not be loaded.  Bought this for my 60g tank I’m setting up. It arrived on time, not damaged. I left it soaking in water for about 17 hrs before putting it in the tank. When i first plugged it in it didn’t produce any bubble, but after about 1 minute or so it started. I’ve only had it running for 1 day or so but so far I’m in love. I wanted it to arrive fast so i used my stepdads prime acc lol. It creates such beautiful small bubbles!!! I would 100% recommend this to anyone. As with any air stone you should soak it prior to putting in the tank, the box says about 40 minutes but just to be safe id do an hour or more. I might get a second one. My step dad has a tank too and he saw this in mine and loved it so he’s buying one as well!!

The media could not be loaded. This is a review of the stick version of this product. This bubbler does put out very fine bubbles so far. As of this post i have had it in my tank for only a day. Make sure you have a strong enough pump to push the air. I've managed to keep this bubbler going full power along with 1 other long flex tube bubbler on a very low airflow with a 3 way valve controller. If i have use the other bubbler at any higher airflow than this micro bubbler won't push air through. The stronger the air pump the better. I am currently using a Fusion Quiet Power air pump, Model 700. Made by jw aquatic. This does use your standard size aquarium air pump and tubing. Nothing else needed. I will try to upload a video of this in my tank. My water is somewhat brownish due to just adding wood/ logs.

I found this incredibly easy to install, no fiddling around with suction cups or having to dislodge gravel to keep the air flowing and it busts through the thin layer of biofilm that was starting to form in my 20 gal tank like a boss not to mention that the bubbles look great in the tank, though I'm not a huge fan of the look of the stone itself but with the given results and the price I find that it was definitely worth it.

Great!! I love it! I soaked mine for 26 hours before putting it in my tank. I simply set it in the gravel a little to keep it in position then turned my pump on. My pump is the Uniclife UL25, puts out 2L/min, and is only running this bar. I would recommend a stronger air pump if you want to split the pressure. Personally, I have 2 air pumps for each of my (2) 10-gallon aquariums. One to run a bar and 1 for a stone. I have several fish in my tank and need to keep it bubbling/water agitated to oxygenate the water well. I’ve read reviews that said there’s didn’t work right and there instructions were wet coming out of the package. So were mine. My bar works perfectly! Also, don’t turn the pump on until you have it in your tank. (Someone told me to do that, but I’m glad I didn’t. Maybe that’s why that bar doesn’t work as well as mine does? I don’t know, but I wouldn’t see any reason to soak it first if you’re going to blow all of the water out before putting it in the tank...just sayin.) Anyway, I highly recommend this product!!

UPDATE 1 June 2018: Back to ONE star. I’d give it ZERO if that were an option. Once again, this bubbler stopped producing fine bubbles, and now in addition to large bubbles, there are gaps that have no bubbles at all. It is still clean. It simply doesn’t continue to perform as advertised. This would be extremely overpriced for a consistently working bubble stone. For one that doesn’t work as it should, the price is absurd. I am returning this before it’s too late. Massively disappointed.Initially, I was happy with this diffuser for one day, after I had soaked this in vinegar for two days before using it. It made a very fine mist of bubbles from the entire stone on the first day. The next day, all of the bubbles were standard size, except for a few on either end of the stick. I didn’t give a good review the first time (only one star.) However, I decided to give this another chance.This is a bit of an algae magnet. It was dirty within a few days, even though my tank water is always crystal clear. I removed the diffuser, soaked it for a few hours in bleach and water solution, and used a toothbrush to gently scrub it. Not all of the algae came off. It was more like a stain than algae that scrubs away. So I rinsed it well, then soaked it overnight in water treated with Seachem Prime, which can be bought here on Amazon. In the morning, the diffuser looked like new. I put it back into the tank, and once again had a very fine mist of bubbles....for an entire TWO DAYS.If you want to be constantly frustrated and continually disrupt your tank by having to remove this bubbler every couple of days to clean it or figure out why it isn’t properly working, and you enjoy throwing your money away, then this is for you. Otherwise, avoid this over-priced non-bubbler.

The micro bubbles are awesome and it works great, as well as a sleek design. Unfortunately the product started growing rust/algae on it. I also had trouble holding it down, it kept floating.

I love this bubble stick! The bubbles are extremely fine and it adds so much to the tank. It oxygenates the water for the fish and provides movement and it looks great aesthetically! I'm using this in my 20g high aquarium and have it situated right in the middle. I can see if you have a larger tank you may need more than 1 of these as it is not overly large. Overall I am very happy with this and it looks great!

3/27/18- Just received this in the mail and installed in my tank. So far I love it. It does in fact produce VERY small bubbles and plenty of them, so much in fact I had to turn the whisper 40 gallon air pump down to maybe half.... give or take to reduce it's output to that of the picture. I'll update this IF needed, but first impressions have me wishing this came in a longer size for my larger tanks. Very happy with this.To the seller/maker, please make this in a 10/12/16inch or maybe with a outlet end to tie multiples together (assuming performance would be the same) and let me know if/when I can buy a few.

Disappointing...
