What kind of stones are you using that seems like alot of airlines buddy.

Most pumps only have two lines

And youll have problems keeping pressure to that many.

Probably better getting one nice round one, the size of the bucket .

I use this one for two buckets .
And a compost tea bucket.

3 total and i get good air pressure

Thanks mate. I think i will use these ceramic balls 30mm (4mm hose). I want to put 4 of them at the edge of the bucket and the 5th in center for maximum bubble area.
