Types of aerators
Surface Aerators
Surface aerators increase the surface area of culture medium by agitating it again some sort of mechanical device. Dissolved oxygen rises when the surface water is thrown up and mixes with the air above the water and then falls back down into the pond or tanks. There are three commonly used surface aerators.
