This 1/2 inch ID Non-Weighted Diffuser Bubble Hose from Matala offers an effective and economical alternative to traditional membrane disc and stone diffusers. Instead of having an air hose that delivers air to a few concentrated points in your pond, this hose provides bubbling oxygenation across its entire length! Since this air tubing is not weighted, you can easily add cinder blocks (or similar) to sink the tubing.

Made from recycled materials, this diffuser tubing can be used for aerating ponds or lakes. It is also effective for aerating aquaculture farms. The increase in oxygen it provides improves the water's quality and clarity, which helps fish, water plants, beneficial bacteria and other aquatic life.

This hose will deliver an air flow rate of 0.45-1.1 CFM per linear foot.

This air line requires significant pressure from an air pump, typically 1 HP or greater for every 10 to 15 feet of running hose.

Please note: Due to the porous nature of this hose, care should be taken when bending it in cool temperatures (approx. 60°F or below), or rips may occur in the membrane. Hosing is most pliable in warm conditions (70°F or above).
