No i do agree with you zandor i said or maybe it wasnt clear, that, it wouldnt put as much O in the water as a airpump. Also a good idea for mixing nutes, some fo the high power 300+gph pumps have at the nossle where the tubeing connects, some come with a piece that actually has a small hole and it jets water out aswell throught the tube so it mixes and pumps at the same time. i have one but its too big for my veggies right now when they flower it will be used.
