    bubbles???

    i know i used to see alot in freshwater tanks an undergravel airrator that let bubbles rise from the bed to the top of the water... i havent seen it in saltwater tanks that ive noticed... its something ive thought about doing but trying to figure a way without burrying it the sand(which isnt my question).. my question is if there are any potential risks to the system to do this what are they

    thanks in advance

    It just adds oxygen. Shouldn't be any issues long term

    Salt creep will be a nightmare.And can damage lights above it with creep on electrical contacts.Otherwise no problem doing it.
