Cylinder air stones in three lengths. A long cylinder throws a curtain of bubbles rather than a single column, which is what you want from a proper pond air pump — more surface agitation, better circulation, quieter than a boil in one spot.
Sizes
- 5 inch — small ponds and large quarantine systems
- 8.5 inch — mid-size ponds
- 12 inch — the full curtain, for serious pond aeration
Tubing — read before ordering
Pond-grade cylinder stones like these typically take a 3/8" barb, sized for the vinyl airline that pond air pumps use — not standard aquarium airline. Our Lee 3/16" airline fits small stones like our sphere air stones, but not these. If you need 3/8" line to go with a stone, contact us and we'll sort you out.
Care
Stones clog gradually with biofilm and minerals. Soak in a 1:1 water and white vinegar mix, rinse thoroughly, and dry before reuse. A stone that stays half-clogged makes the pump work harder for less air.
Why buy from ChampKoi?
ChampKoi has kept koi ponds breathing from our San Jose, California facility since 1998. Tell us your air pump model and depth and we'll match the stone to it.
