The aerator rings connect to the AquaOxy with the provided 5m of airline tubing. They are also supplied with a threaded airline connected that accepts any airline of 8mm/10mm internal diameter. Each air ring is made of highly durable materials from Oase, a trusted brand in Pond equipment.

Troubleshooting
No or low air bubbles produced
Check that the AquaOxy pump is switched on and functioning. Ensure the airline tubing is securely connected to both the aerator bar and the pump. Inspect the airline tubing for any kinks or blockages. Verify that you are using a compatible 2022 AquaOxy model.
Uneven bubble distribution
The aerator bar might have a partial blockage. Gently clean the surface of the aerator bar with a soft brush or by rinsing it in clean water. Ensure the aerator bar is fully submerged and oriented correctly.
Airline tubing leaks at the connector
Ensure the airline tubing is inserted fully into the threaded connector. If the tubing is old or stiff, it might not create a tight seal; consider replacing the tubing. Ensure the connector itself is not damaged.
