I finally got my own bubbler set up for my hermit crab tank!
I used this air pump: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MT ... UTF8&psc=1
and these to split it into the pools: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07FZ ... UTF8&psc=1
So far, the air pump is super quiet, and puts out a good amount of bubbles, especially considering that I split it into two pools! I'm super happy with how my bubbling pools turned out. I just had to add a connector and a small amount of tubing on the ends, then attach the air stones. The suction cups that came with the connectors hold well so far, and the air pump is super tiny and suctions right onto my tank! Setting these up was way easier than I had anticipated, and it was relatively inexpensive. I'll update later in case it dies or something, but so far I recommend the air pump I purchased.

I recommend that you remove the fishing net from the situation, for a few reasons.
1) the craft mesh is plenty for them to grab onto.
2) you don't want them to possibly get tangled and drown
3) it will wick water from the pools onto your substrate, and empty your pools.

Truly blessed to have incredible creatures, wonderful friends and my amazing family in my life!! I'm very thankful & grateful for all of them! www.thehealthyhermit.com
