I'm thinking of installing a pond air pump to benefit my fish and have been reading reviews of various makes available here in the UK. I'm now totally lost and have no idea which type to go for. Could anyone give some pointers as to what I need, if possible, and hopefully give me some advise from any experiences they may have had rather than me relying solely on sales blurb and dodgy reviews?
I saw a Blagdon 2 air pump, but reviews were saying it has problems with the diaphragm and other internal bits failing after only a short while of operation.
I need something that's easy to install, maintain and operate as I have to do things on my own now, and electricity isn't my best subject! I was amazed to find a lot of pumps aren't watertight and have to be housed inside somewhere...not a problem as I have what folks assume is a dog kennel that houses my filter and electrical connections. My pond is approx 1400 UK gallons.
Thanks!
