Smile Where to get OXYGENATING MICRO PUMP in Singapore?

Hi all,

Does anyone know where to get such type of water pumps as shown in the below awesome video by Pondguru?

It differs from the usual water pumps in that the air inlet/hose connection is actually situated on the pump body, before the motor blades, which allows for much finer bubbles. I really like it. Just so multi-purposeful and creates beautiful air curtains.

Hope to hear from you all, thanks!!

Watch from around 9:00 into the video:

The usual air inlet mixture via the water exit nozzle is ezyly available but not the aquaponic pump...Imo, the aquaponic pump will not last as longer, cause it's using impeller to mixture (air+water) air drawn into impeller causes cavitation thus implosion that'll wear down the impeller and the system very fast.

Hmmm this type of water is similar to a needle wheel skimmer pump. U can go to any fish fish that sell marine equipment and they should sell it. Just tell them u need a needle wheel pump.
