Hi all,
I'm a little worried about my current air pump. I have concerns it might malfunction and potentially cause a fire. Basically it happened to a friend who had a 4yr old air pump and mine is up around this age.
It's probably undue paranoia, I'm sure.
In any event I am considering replacing it because the one I have now is actually pretty noisy and so replacing it for a quieter one is a good justification.
Any recommendations? I'm considering the AquarWorld brand, but haven't heard much about this brand in the past. Does anyone have experience with this brand?
Also, how do you translate these ratings on the air pumps to something practical?
e.g.: 2.3 Watts 1.4 lpm
Thanks in advance.
