air pump

Question
I'll be introducing my oranda fish to a 120 litre fish tank. In order to improve the oxygen in the tank.I intend to buy an air pump. I've seen one the runs at 3 litres a minute. This pump has two outlets. Would this be adequate. I have two fish but plan to introduce another one or two.

Answer
Hi Andrew!

Yes! An Air Pump is a great thing to have in the tank, not only does it make the oxygen levels higher, the bubbles it makes will make your tank a lot prettier. However, be careful when choosing the pumps because some pumps can be very noisy, even the ones that say they are quiet. As the pump gets older, it will marginally get slightly louder.

If you don't want to get a pump, try some live aquatic plants.

Hope this helps!
