A "DUH!" Question, maybe

Maybe the answer is obvious already...but I'm gonna ask this anyways, so I ensure getting the correct opinion lol.
My plants are in "Dutch Bucket" style hydro systems (recirculating ->As in a large resevoir with 2.5 gallon buckets on top - pump that recirculates water using 1/4" tubing that pours "through" buckets and back down into resevoir). Anyways, my question is this: if I added aquarium aeration via bubblers to each resevoir (creating oxygen in my resevoir water) connected to air pumps, would this benefit my plants alot??
I am new to this system, and unsure if this something needed or will help. I've always done it for DWC in the past. Opinions plz! Thanks all. Happy weekend!

Disclaimer: ive only grown soil, but have been researching hydro lately with the intention of switching soon

That probably depends on how much your current pump is aerating your water. couldnt hurt to try, find out for yourself, but im not the best person to ask.

Have you heard of heath robinson?
Best flow hydro grower ive ever seen. Just look up heath trees cannabis and those giant fucking plants bending under their weight. Those are him

I have whole printout of him explaining his setup in case i cant find it later. Been a long time since he grew. Think he stopped when he had kids or something and most of his posts seem to be gone. Hard to find
