Does the use of bubble stones and a strong current expel the important plant nutrient, CO2, from the water?
During aeration and/or when there is a strong current, a gas equilibrium is achieved between the ambient air and the water. As a result a corresponding but very low CO2 content occurs too. BUT this low CO2 content is far too low to for most aquarium plants to thrive. The aquarium owner is therefore dependent on an additional CO2 supply by a CO2 fertiliser system. The higher CO2 content this achieves is reduced or, as commonly referred to in aquatics, expelled by the aeration and strong current. Therefore well planted aquariums should only be slightly aerated at night, if required.

How can I remove the hose from the device?
At first the air hoses and special CO2 hoses can easily be pushed on the connection piece. The hoses harden more and more as the months go on and can only be removed from the connection piece using great force. If you pull the hose hard it will only strain the connection, which could, in the worst case, even break off. Instead cut the hoses you want to remove laterally at the ends and carefully remove them. For this it’s always advisable to install hoses with some reserve in its hose length.

Why is my air pump making loud buzzing noises?
Even under the best conditions, the working noises will be audible in quiet rooms. Every air pump produces vibration and buzzing noises that are more or less clearly audible. The JBL PROSILENT diaphragm pumps have rubber feet to reduce the transmission of vibrations to the floor. The air pump can "wander" on smooth surfaces and should be secured with a soft, non-slip underlay. Hanging it on the wall results in a complete decoupling. _x000D_ _x000D_ Please note that the volume can be very loud when the hoses are not connected, similar to a modified exhaust on a car. The "silencer" is missing. It is only when back pressure is present that it is substantially minimised. A flow reduction at one of the air volume regulators reduces the noise level considerably. _x000D_ _x000D_ Therefore, never operate the JBL PROSILENT model(s) with two air connections with only one air connection in "idle mode", i.e. without a connected hose with an air outlet stone or similar! This would lead to premature diaphragm wear and increased noise level.
