You’ve got algae on your pond—or maybe you have nasty pond odors wafting into your house and mosquitos taking over your yard—and the solution you keep running into time and time again in your research is something called aeration.
But what is aeration? What does it do for your pond? How do you aerate a pond? These are all good questions, the answers to which escape most pond owners.
In order to help the average pond owner understand aeration a little bit better, we’ve put together a crash course:
What is pond aeration?
Pond aeration is a process by which oxygen is added to water, effectively raising the level of dissolved oxygen. This dissolved oxygen is what fish use to breathe, and what other organisms use to keep your pond clean.
Two things are crucial in this process: aeration efficiency & mixing action.
High efficiency ensures that you’re imparting the most water at the lowest energy cost (basically getting the most bang for your buck), and the mixing action make certain that this highly oxygenated water is spread throughout your entire pond.
What does aeration do for my pond?
Aeration is integral to maintaining the appearance and aquatic health of your pond. The Mixing and Aerating actions perform four key roles:
1. Reduce algae and clarify water by providing oxygen for beneficial bacteria to breathe—when these bacteria thrive, they rapidly consume the nutrient material in your pond that would otherwise fuel algae blooms and cloudy water.
Algae is also reduced through mixing. The mixing action both creates a turbulence that disrupts the algae habitat and circulates oxygen throughout the entire water column, allowing the safe bacteria to outcompete algae for food pond-wide.
2. Get rid of pond odors by facilitating oxygen breathing, or aerobic, bacteria growth. When bacteria break down nutrients without oxygen, they release horrible pond odors!
Aerobic bacteria actually breakdown nasty pond odors before they reach the surface, keeping your pond smelling fresh.
3. Provide fish the ideal habitat with aeration by ensuring that they have ample oxygen throughout the pond to breathe.
Fish health is also improved by the mixing action, as this destratifies the water column and avoids pond turnover (a twice-a-year phenomenon that sometimes causes the death of all your fish!)
4. Limit mosquito breeding by mixing up the stagnant water they thrive in. What’s more, the oxygenating abilities of good aerators expand the fish habitat, allowing them to travel into shallow water and eat up the nuisance mosquito larvae.
What types of Pond Aerators are there?
On- Surface Aerators
Fountains: Pond fountains claim to aerate by launching water into the air. While this may look nice, it is relatively poor at adding oxygen to the water and costs a huge amount of money in electricity costs.
At the same time, fountains are unable to adequately mix lower levels of the pond. Between its poor aerating ability, its inefficient operation, and sub-standard mixing, fountains are a bad aeration choice.
Surface Aerators: Surface aerators work in a fashion similar to that of fountains, except for they don’t offer a visually appealing spray pattern. So, not only is a surface aerator a bad, inefficient aerator—it looks ugly to boot!
Subsurface Aerators
Standard Diffused Aerator: Standard diffused aerators sit at the bottom of your pond, and are powered by a compressor onshore.
They release fine (tiny) bubbles at the bottom of the pond, which is fantastic at adding oxygen to your pond, but lacking in mixing—this is because the microbubbles rise too slowly to create a sufficient mixing action.
Windmill Diffused Aerator: Windmill aeration works exactly like standard diffused aeration except for one part—it uses a windmill instead of a compressor to push air.
Not only is the performance of this unpredictable because of the inconsistency of the wind, it also produces very small quantities of air (not nearly enough to oxygenate your entire pond!).
MARS Double Bubble™ Aerators: The MARS works just like a standard diffused aerator with a compressor onshore and a fine bubble diffuser on the bottom—gaining excellent oxygen transfer.
The advantage of the MARS is in its Double Bubble™ Technology, which combines both fine bubble efficiency with a component designed specifically for superior mixing ability: the coarse bubble static tube aerator.
This patented, synergistic combination allows the MARS to Mix & Aerate your entire pond, making it the most effective and efficient aerator on the market today.

Marker M4 Attiva Ski Helmet - Adult 2008
$130 A full-featured, lightweight, low volume ski helmet for a performance-minded skier, the M4 Attiva by Marker is a champion head guardian with its in-molded technology which merges the external thermoplastic ABS material with an internal EPS shell, providing the helmet with unsurpassed strength and durability. In-molded technology also offers superior scratch protection, resisting damage from that first run through the trees and for many years of hard use. The external shell, made in a special thermoplastic material called Ronfalin, maintains the strength and resistance features even at very low temperatures and where normal thermoplastic materials lose their strength characteristics. Distributing pressure in a wider area during impact, the internal shell made of polystyrene absorbs the energy produced during impact but with a density that provides the lightest helmet possible. The M4 Attiva's double shell helmet structure gives the wearer unequaled lightness and comfort with its considerably low volume, especially in the back, which provides an incredibly close-fitting and encompassing helmet. With a goggle strap holder built in, this helmet makes it so your goggles stay right where you place them, preventing them from sliding down or off as you race down the hill. Equipped with a hypoallergenic and antibacterial liner, the M4 prevents that funky smell that comes with long, strenuous days out on the slopes. The M4 is also the only helmet to offer the adjustable drawing flow control feature which consists of an inner and outer cap that permits for a ventilating current to use the hollow space between the two shells and provide the aeration and channel the air from front to back. Other features include a natural flow design and removable ear pads. ASTM and CE certified, the M2 is easily one of the best helmets available and definitely one of the most stylish. Features: Attiva Suprema liner, Hypoallergenic and antibacterial liner, ASTM and CE certified. Audio Helmet: No |
