Air Stone VS Bubble Wand?

I am looking into getting an aeration system for my 28 gallon tank. I am looking at the whisper air pump (with legs)... which attachment is better an air stone or a bubble wand? Or does it not matter?

Thanks for your help!

Mark

it really doesn't matter which one but I personally think airstones are cooler to look at :]]

I like flexible bubble wands the most since you can shape them how you want for the curtain of bubbles.

the thin blue wand type ones with the suction cups i've had problems with them not sticking to the glass and floating up. now im using the heavier blue rod type ones they stay on the bottom

Agreed...


I also agree with the weighted blue ones...

neither one is going to aerate much, they just look nice. for aeration you need to get a ceramic diffuser, they're like $6 each.
