Hi all. Surely would appreciate knowing this: What size air pump do I use for the 5 gallon DWC I'm putting together?

Thanks for any and all help.

it may sound silly but go for the biggest you can afford. you can never have to many bubbles. best of luck.

This is the one I use, but I bought it from the local hydro store.

same one i use, good pump and a good price. but you could probly use a 60 gallon aquarium air pump for just 1 res. if your going to do more then 1 5 gallon bucket or rubbermade get the AA but they are alot louder then the aquarium pumps

Thanks alot to each of you --- the bigger the better and that's what I'll do.

A 28 gph would do, but bigger is better if you can handle the heat and noise.
