VIVOSUN Air Stone Disc 5x5 with Shell – Aquarium, Fish Tank & Hydroponics Aeration

Boost Water Aeration with the VIVOSUN 5x5 Air Stone Disc

The VIVOSUN Air Stone Disc 5x5, encased in a protective shell, is designed to deliver steady, fine bubbles that help oxygenate water across a range of setups. Crafted from mineral material and sintered at high temperature, this disc balances durability with a fish-safe surface, making it a practical addition for tanks, ponds, and hydroponic systems.

In real-world use, the tiny bubbles spread evenly through the water, supporting gentle agitation and improved gas exchange. This can enhance the perceived vitality of aquatic life in tanks, encourage stronger root zones in hydroponics, and help maintain consistent oxygen levels in smaller ponds or decorative water features.

Key Benefits and Use Cases

• Dense, fine bubbles promote even air distribution without aggressive splashing
• Compatible with standard air pumps in the 4–16 W range and 0.16" (4 mm) ID tubing

• Size: 5" diameter, 0.8" high; compact profile fits most lids and corners
• Durable mineral material sintered at high temperature for long-lasting performance
• Fish-safe construction designed to be gentle on aquatic life
• Easy prep: soak completely in water for about 2 hours before first use
• Routine cleaning with a brush helps prevent buildup and maintains airflow
• Widely applicable to hydroponic systems, ponds, aquariums, and fish tanks

Getting Started and Maintenance

Begin with a simple pre-use soak to prime the surface for optimal bubble formation. After weeks or months of use, a light brush cleaning will help keep the pores clear and ready for efficient aeration.

With a compact disc design and reliable mineral material, this aeration solution is versatile enough for hobbyists and hobby-grade setups alike. Pair it with a suitably powered pump and the correct tubing to fit your vessel, and you’ll have a straightforward way to support active water environments.
