    Thumbs up Any point in the venturi effect?

    I have a Millennium 2000 filter, and it has A venturi air valve which mixes oxygen with filtered water to improve gas exchange.

    Now how much of an effect does this have on everything living in the tank?



    Thanks!

    Re: Any point in the venturi effect?

    The reason I see for the air injection is to give oxygen to the bacteria that is suppose to house in the plate provided. I have found this not to be a proper filter for most ALL aquarium keeping.

    Can it be used to help the bacteria in the tank? Or the life in the tank? Minus the plate?
