AirOxi Algae Resistant Aeration Tube – High-Efficiency Aeration Solution

The AirOxi Algae Resistant Tube is a specially engineered aeration tube designed for aquaculture ponds, tanks, and fisheries. Manufactured using an elastomeric blended compound with a silver-based anti-microbial, anti-fungal, and anti-algal additive, this tube ensures long-lasting performance while reducing fouling and maintenance.

Built to provide uniform fine bubbles (1–2 mm) and maximum oxygen transfer, the AirOxi Tube helps maintain water quality, improve dissolved oxygen (DO) levels, and support healthier fish and shrimp culture.

Key Features of AirOxi Algae Resistant Aeration Tube

✅ Anti-Algae & Anti-Fungal – Silver-based additive prevents biofilm and algae buildup.
✅ Fine Bubble Diffusion – Creates 1–2 mm micro-bubbles for maximum oxygen dissolution.
✅ Durable Construction – Elastomeric polymer blend with high burst pressure (50 PSI).
✅ High Oxygen Transfer – Delivers 0.1–0.2 kg O₂ per meter per hour.
✅ Wide Working Range – Effective up to 3m water depth, 0–50°C temperature.
✅ Energy Efficient – Requires less blower capacity (20–30m per HP).
✅ Easy Installation – Compatible with standard ½” (12–16 mm) fittings.

Product Description

The AirOxi Algae Resistant Tube is the ultimate aeration solution for aquaculture systems. Its micro-hole technology produces fine, uniform bubbles that significantly increase oxygen transfer rates while minimizing energy costs.

The tube’s anti-algal and anti-fungal properties reduce clogging and extend its lifespan, ensuring reliable aeration for fish, shrimp, and other aquaculture environments.

Whether used in lined ponds, earthen ponds, biofloc systems, or RAS setups, the AirOxi tube improves water circulation, prevents stagnant zones, and helps maintain healthy aquatic life.

Installation & Usage Instructions

• Ensure all pipes and joints are leak-free before installation.
• Install at least 12 inches above pond floor (6 inches if PE lined pond).
• Arrange tubes on all sides of the pond for uniform aeration.
• Operate 24/7 to prevent choking of micro-holes.
• Maintain a minimum bending radius of 0.3m.
• Use only ½” (12–16 mm) fittings for secure connections.
• Minimum inlet pipe size: ½” (12 mm).

Why Choose AirOxi Algae Resistant Tube?

Compared to conventional aeration tubes, the AirOxi AR tube offers:
✔ Longer life due to anti-algal properties.
✔ Higher oxygen transfer with fine bubbles.
✔ Lower maintenance and reduced fouling.
✔ Energy efficiency with optimized blower usage.
✔ Proven reliability in fish & shrimp farming worldwide.
