I got a 10gal. tote with a 35 watt Ecoplus air pump.Is this to much aeration?
Too Much aeration?
No such animal sir !

nah seriously I dont think you can have too many bubbles, the bubbles add O2 which the roots love and if you could add to many bubbles / air then wouldnt aeroponics not work ? a good rule of thumb I have learned is you want the water in the pot to look like a pot of water boiling over but hell if you could get it to be even more than that I dont see how it would hurt. More bubbles the better!

I would agree with FeFiFoFUM. If you have an extreme amount of bubbles you could teeter on the borderline between bubbleponics and aeroponics.

Bubbles are good. You want lots of bubbles. Atleast I've never encountered a problem from too many bubbles anyway.
