I got a big bath tub to go in the back of the truck but I need to find a good way to make a aereation system to keep the water moving. I need some pics so I can see what I need to make.

I was thinking of using a aereator pump like the kind in a boat. I did think about agitateing it though. What is the best way to get oxygen into the water. Im just making something to move shad and bluegill for short distances.

I've moved BG 150 or so miles by using 2 of the "D" cell aerators (bubblers) that I bought from Wal-Mart in a 120 qt. marine cooler. www.hoosierpondpros.com http://www.pondboss.com/subscribe.asp?c=4 3/4 to 1 1/4 ac pond LMB, SMB, PS, BG, RES, CC, YP, Bardello BG, (RBT & Blue Tilapia - seasonal).
