That's what I've read from several posts here, so that's what I'm going with.
Yes, if you only plan to run overnight, the system should be able to provide enough lift to completely cycle the water in the time frame your running...my understanding anyway. I just don't know how you can be sure it's getting a full cycle. I've read where ponds can still experience fish kills with aeration and I have to assume it's because the system isn't moving enough water.
To get the most lift you need a diffuser that makes millions of tiny bubbles, that makes sense, but how do you know if you've got enough air volume to get a full cycle? And if you use a diffuser that produces larger bubbles, such as air stones, how much more volume do you need to get the same O2 production?
Maybe I'm over thinking it. Hopefully someone can put us on the right path.
