air stone Question
 
For my storage water, fresh and Salt....would you recommend a powerhead for aeration or a air stone, and what kind of air stone would you recommend. :rollface:

I use a MaxiJet 900 for RO/DI circulation/aeration and for SW mixing/aeration/circulation.

Good powerheads and move the water well.

JMHO

Also forgot to mention that I keep a small 100 watt submersible heater in my storage/mixing containers (2 - 45g Rubbermaid Brute) set at 78 to keep the temp at roughly the same as my tanks.

We us a power head and heater also- in out 40 gal ro water tank-never tried a air stone so can't say if its the same.

I use a sedra pump with a venturi (meant for a skimmer) and it mixes and aerates quickly. It also would works as a backup pump if my skimmer pump goes out.
