Maxum Aquarium Airpump Kit – 1.0 L/Min – 15 G
The Maxum Aquarium Airpump Kit – 1.0 L/Min – 15 G from JBJ Aquarium is the small-tank hero you don’t think about—until your fish start gasping at the surface. It quietly keeps water moving, pushing oxygen in and letting carbon dioxide out. You’ll spot it under Pumps and Flow next to other compact circulation gear that makes tanks run smoother.
Built Quiet and Easy to Live With
This little pump doesn’t scream for attention. The noise-reduction feet help it hum quietly in the background. Cleaning it takes only a rinse—no fiddly parts or tools needed.
You can browse other styles in the Air Pump section, where multi-line models and adjustable flow versions sit side-by-side with this one.
Why the Maxum Aquarium Airpump Works So Well
Good aeration isn’t fancy—it’s steady. The Maxum Aquarium Airpump sends a soft, constant stream of bubbles through its tubing, stirring the surface so oxygen can get in and CO₂ can leave. No drama, just balance.
What’s Inside the Box:
-
Airline tubing that fits snugly without kinks
-
A small check valve to prevent backflow
-
An air stone for even bubble flow
-
Rubber feet that cut down on vibration and rattle
It’s everything you need to keep your tank breathing right out of the box.
How Aeration Helps Your Fish
Every tank breathes differently. Warmer water, meds, and plant growth can all choke off oxygen. That’s when a steady Aquarium Airpump becomes a lifesaver. It keeps the surface active, helps biological filters do their job, and makes sure fish stay lively instead of sluggish.
