Dows this help add oxygen to the water?

Yes, as long as you have it connected to an air pump and the exhaust tube is below the waterline. Some people recommend adding air stones. Air stone will increase the amount of bubbles by making them smaller and also help reduce the flow, for a more gentle output.

The filter requires an air pump to function. The action of the rising air bubbles through the clear plastic tube draws water into the sponge filter. Those same bubbles can add to the oxygen content of the water. The bulk of the O2 in the water will be caused as the bubble break the surface of the water, as it is with any air stone. The filter has the added benefit over a simple air stone of removing solid waste from the water, and hosting a beneficial bacteria colony that will remove the ammonia from your water once established.

Clearly not enough. No room for plants or any way to get oxygen in. Basically torture for fish -- like not enough air or space. Why bother to waste money- soon you will have dead fish.

Yes you can. Look at the water flow chart to see if this will supply what you need.

I would not do that. Use it to disinfect it BEFORE you add water. Let it sit in the container as per the instructions on the bottle, for disinfection. If you want to add to the water, use an essential oil such as eucalyptus, rosemary etc.. They have disinfection properties, would be safer to breathe, and can do some healing to the lungs. Good luck! My opinions are my own, and are not for the purpose of diagnosing or treating diseases etc.. :0) Would be glad to answer any other ques you may have, if i can!

They can help oxygenate the water by creating water movement and surface agitation.

You dont. The water/nutrient solution is used up in plant growth. The bubbler prevents stagnation and ads oxygenation to the nutrient solution. You will continue to add water/nutrient solution to the master bucket as needed, it has a level indicator tube on the outside.

Yes. Well, it should just out gas whatever it absorbed. So, if you are using it to absorb water it should out gas water. It is was absorbing some other compound, it would probably out gas that.

It Is Called A O2 Enrichment Adapter. It Allows Oxygen To Be Infused To CPAP Airflow.Not Sure If That Helpe.

It really depends on your water parameters. But if you have really hard water (above 300ppm) this might not even work. Sorry I couldn't be more specific.

That's what I have done; because of my hood, I can't raise the lip of the filter very much above the level of the water. I would have liked to be able to; that way there would be some aeration. I do have a smaller model in my 5 gallon betta tank that I don't have supplemental air. Because of this, occasionally I notice a sheen on the surface of the water. If your fish can handle extra circulation, I say go ahead and do it. I've been using a Top Fin pump from a local business that is still going strong after a year

If you're running fresh water, you'll need an air pump, some air tubing, and an air stone. I also use a bag of Purigen in all of my tanks. It's a great all purpose filter media that can be regenerated with bleach so you don't have to keep buying it like carbon or other medias.None of this is expensive. You can get all of the above for less than $30 and it will help your tank quite a bit.

No it does not. It adds oxygen to your beverage to help with things like focus and headaches. And other ailments people take oxygen for.

Yes and as far parts per gallon and such, google articles about stablized oxygen. There are also paperback books available at healthfood stores

Liquid oxygen improves blood oxygen level. There are additives for emergency water purification but I've never used them.Marge

the vortex structures the water. the minerals is an added benefit. adding Celtic salt would basically do the same thing. i ordered the mineral pack for the heck of it though.

As response to the question - you should add it to the water change water cuz if you add it to the already 7.0 water it will make it higher have a great day

It depends on what you want to use it for. In general, I would say yes, as adding any amount to the total water source will help to stabilize the water. For a nano reef, putting this on a timer opposite the lights of your main tank, and filling it with macro algae would help reduce night pH swings.
