Instructions:
1. Connect one end of each length of airline tubing to each air pump outlet. Install the check valve in each line to prevent water back flow into the pump. Connect the tubing ends to airstones. Alternately, a tee can be used to join the two outlets into a single line. Install a check valve to prevent back flow in the line.
2. Make sure the power supply of the pump matches the local voltage and power source.
3. Periodically check and replace the airline tubing and airstones to maintain the air pump’s performance.
Safety Warnings:
– Do not sure this pump without the enclosed safety check valve to prevent aquarium water from back flowing into the pump.
– Risk of electric shock is greater in areas that are wet or damp. Install Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCIs) to interrupt the electrical circuit before a current sufficient to cause death or serious injury occurs.
– Use a portable in-line Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) if you are not certain that the receptacle you are plugging your pump into is GFCI protected. Inspect cords, plugs, and tubing for soundness at regular intervals.

Had this for about 4 months now and its the best air pump id own.
Saw this in a YouTube video and said to myself i gotta get one, threw out all my other crappy 15$ air pumps i had as they weren’t really up to the task for my 2 large airstone, and they were staring to get loud not sure why tho. annny waay, this air pump has more then 3+ times more power then my other pumps had and its VERY quiet, let me stop taking and give ya the pros and cons….
Pros
1- ALOT OF AIR, im not over exaggerating here’s that YouTube link – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KHymaaO44Rs&feature=emb_logo
2- Super quiet for the amount of air it throws
3- Two Air outputs (tho this is becoming more standard in air pumps)
4- The air flow knob is very smooth, in fact i think this air pump uses a PWM controller which means it lowers the motors speed for less air flow which keeps the motor cooler and noise down, MOST OTHER air pump do a sort of a air restricting method for less airflow, meaning that the knob crushes a air line to lower the air flow , this is the cheap way of doing it but it has its cons, first of most MOTOR stress, the pumps motor is always at full power and when you restrict the air output it makes the motor work harder because the motor now has to deal with all the extra back presser of restricted air flow from flow controller knob, meaning more stress on your motor and shorter motor life (not a big deal if you have a 15$ airpump) also is some cases this can lead to the increase in HUMMING the motor does(hope this made sense hahaha)
Cons
1- As much as i would say the price is a con but for 60$ your really getting a quality air pump that im sure will last you years!
2- size, she ant no micro pump but she isnt a fully grow Bala Shark either L=7.5″ W=4 1/4″ H=2 7/8″

Yes, it’s pricey, but it’s a premium air pump. Although I’ve only owned this air pump (I have 4 of them now) for a few months, the build quality feels like it’ll last a lifetime. I know, it hurts the wallet every time I buy another one, but if it runs your aquarium for 10 years, you only paid $6.29 per year for powerful, quiet, and reliable air flow.

I like this pump. Since I use under gravel filters in all of my setups, I have this running 2 UGFs and 2 sponge filters in a 75 and 20 long. And I have it plugged into a regular APC UPS, and it kept my tanks filtered and aeriated for 3 hours during a black out. Very quiet.
