Too many bubbles?

[the_elvish_misfit]

I have a full bubble strip across the back of my 72g, and 2 rocks that have airstones in them plus the filters waterfall. Is this too much? You can see the thousands of tiny bubbles all through the tank and I was wondering if this could be bad for the fish.

You dont need them at all really. I took mine down and the fish seem much more "swimmy", the bubbles and fish didnt get along.


Id get a gang valve and regulate the pressure so you dont have all the bubbles all the time.

bubble wands stones air pumps for the most part are more for look then anything. i dont have a single one in my tanks.

I don't think it could hurt the fish, really, but if you're seeing bubbles all over the tank I doubt it's improving the look of it either. I agree, I'd cut down or remove it entirely just for the sake of water clarity so you can actually see your fish. I do like the look of bubble walls though.
