Pretty good
Negatives:
- The only issue I have with this aerator is that I can't get it to vibrate Less Loudly. I have a hood on my tank and it amplifies the vibrating! I'm not sure how "quiet" other aerators are but I hope they aren't louder than this one. If you don't have a hood you don't really hear it at all - all you hear are the bubbles, and that's nice. But now with my hood on all I hear is vibrating. I sleep in the same room (like 5 ft) from my tank so you can see why this is a problem for me. I've had to close the hood at an odd angle (slightly misaligning it) to make the noise go down a bit.
- Oh, another thing is that so much of the box/instructions is taken up by translations! (There are SEVEN different languages on this box/in the instructions! So as you can imagine, there aren't too many Words used to explain how to assemble this product. With a little common sense and an attempt to find usefulness in the diagrams, it comes together really simply. You basically just...

It's ok
My koi likes to take mouthfuls of gravel and spits it out while he's swimming. It isn't long when a piece gets lodged onto the aerator, causing it to stop working. The aerator has suction feet, so I decided to stick it to the aquarium wall instead. This seems to have done the trick, it hasn't stopped since (Ive had this unit for about 5+months). I couldn't leave the light on the aerator because it would point horizontal instead of up through the column of bubbles. I put the light above the water pointing down onto the bubbles. It worked, ok. I would much rather the aerator worked in it's intended position. Of course, my fish like to change the landscape-if you have smaller fish that doesn't chew on the rocks all the time, you wouldn't have this problem.
I wish I had gotten the single color light instead of the multi. The colors cycle too quickly, especially noticeable if that's the only light you have in the aquarium. I wonder if the color changes annoy my fish, lol,...
Terrible product
After reading some good reviews I decided to purchase this and wished I never had. The air pump continually failed on a daily basis. I would have to manually go into my tank and mess with it over and over until it would work again. After doing this for a while I wrote Amazon and they refunded my money. I then wrote the company who was of no help whatsoever. The light worked fine so I thought I had a total lemon air pump. I then went back and purchased just the air pump to replace the original one and immediately it began doing the same thing. This time the air pump would not start again and was scalding hot when I removed it from the tank. Both air pumps were fine as far as the impeller being intact. There was no debris in the motor. It is just a bad product. I had mine completely unobstructed from any substrate so it wouldn't accidentally pull any in which also made it aesthetically unpleasing in the tank. And as I stated after numerous emails to Hydor with only two responses which...
