Should I trade in my 'up to fourth gallon air pump' for a 20 gallon air pump for my 2

[courtney1626]

I have two large decorations both of which have the air hose plug and make pretty bubbles but I don't want it to make swimming to hard for my fish I have one on each side and there's just no where real calm and relaxing in the tank for them to just chill, there's just so much bubbles! Lol should I switch to a lower powered air pump? I have 3 bettas, 2 Molly's, one violet goby, 1 Cory fish, and 2 african drawf frogs...

The answer is yes. What type of valves are you using for the different airlines? I would use a gang valve to turn the decorations way down so they belch bubbles or barely function. All that stuff looks neat, but just think about your house with a 40-50 mph wind all the time. Not too appealing right?
