Diffuser Placement? - 06/15/15 07:55 PM
So this spring I finally bought a aeration system and have it installed and running. It came with two diffusers and 100ft of weighted hose and 100ft of non-weighted hose. I am currently only running one diffuser because I didn't like how the non-weighted hose looked. My pond was built in a natural deep valley. The sides just drop off but the beach side tapers pretty slowly.. The side closer to my dam though is 20ft deep... The diffuser is sitting in 8ft of water right now.
My question is, where should I put my diffuser or diffusers for the best results. Here are a few pics of my setup so far. I can change anything and everything, its whatever you Jedi masters say...

Since installing I have noticed that my bass and bluegills aren't swimming so close to the top of the water. I used to be able to walk out to my pond and see at least 6 bass within the top two feet of water. My water has almost 3 ft of clarity though..
