Try HAILEA air compressors, brilliant. We had the 70 lph running 12 airstones in doors at 2' depth and 3 in the pond at 6' depth. Here is a website that gives you some info.

Try hailea piston pumps. They are best and I just picked up 6 off ebay. I am setting up my fish room now and will be using them as they are very silent and long lasting. |

go for the piston type
they last for ages and are near silent
i have one in our fish house it pumps 240lt a min
i would go for one bigger than you req at the min as sod law say's you will be getting more tanks and need more air(lol)
you could always "bleed" off what you dont need,and if you do get more tanks you have the air supply already there. |

thanks everyone for the advice, been looking at the the piston pumps, but never mentions if they are ok for constant use in the write ups |

Hailea are piston pumps, they are fine to run constantly, & cheap to run into the bargain.
