Hi, What else could one use as air pump for bubble agitation? Because i had so little bubble holes bubbling i connected a rubber ball (with one-way valves) instead of the pump. Surprisingly the bubbler hose works really well if i compress the ball by hand. The small aquarium pump just doesn't have enough pressure or flow to operate enough of the holes to create a even curtain. Now i'm looking for a larger pump. There are cheap piston compressors, but because i want to run the thing closed loop (take the air from inside the etching tank) they are unsuitable with their aluminum cylinder. I thought about buying a 10 piece lot of small pumps, and connecting them together (maybe some series some parallel) to increase the airflow. You think that would work? Any other ideas welcome, i just can't come up with a solution. ST
