Great question. I have two air elements in the tank (the LED Bubble wand and an air stone). Because of this I got the Hydrofarm Air Pump 2 Outlets 3W 7.8L/min from Amazon. This is a great pump, quieter than I expected, and works great for the wand when running at 50%. If you have just the one element, the wand, you won't need this pump but you can use the specs of this pump as a rough guide since you won't need more than 7.8L/min to run your bubble wand. Get a pump that is adjustable. I really like being able to freely adjust the pressure which creates a different feel in the tank depending on how many bubbles you want. Great question.

Depends on the size of the tank. Pumps are rated for water pressure, which is dependant on how many gallons your tank holds. Error on the side of more power and make sure you have a control valve and the mechanism to keep the water from flowing back down to your pump.

I have the medium size. It depends on what you are running on it. If you are only using it for the bubble wand a small might be fine

I use one for a 30 gallon and it works amazingly. Not sure how a smaller pump would work though.

I never used it but I purchased it specifically for that size pool. You can never have a pump that's to big in my opinion!

Any bike pump will work. I would suggest a full size pump with foot pegs. We used a small hand held bike pump but it broke down after a few days, full size much easier to use. Great rocket, you will have a blast.

At 8 feet the 91330 & 91335 model will pump about 30 GPM. You can find the "PERFORMANCES" chart in your owners manual on page %. If you don't have your manual, you can download it at http://www.superiorpump.com/Manuals/utility.manuals.html.

Hard to say. I consider it to be small, but that is an opinion. As the pump does not cost very much and works so well, I would buy the whole thing and go from there.

I use a Topeak Mountain Morph (high volume) for my Fatbike. It takes me about 120 pumps to fill a 4"X26 bicycle tire to 7 PSI. I'm sure the Mountain Morph would work for your needs if you have the patience.

Hello, I have 2 inch incoming and 1.5 out going. I use my pump for for a booster pump for an R.O. System. Works great.

It will work, however if you use you pool allot or it gets dirty easily I would go with a bigger pump.

I am using this pump on a 30 gallon long it works well. I wish i would have bought the next size up and turned the flow down

You will be ok with the FNSP48 but with the FNSP60, I would recommend a 1.5 or 2hp pump.

I used 1/4 I/D was a bit small but heated the tubing end up with a lighter and it fit the pump good. But don't buy this pump, it works ok but doesn't move much water. I would definetly get a larger one.

I use a 5/8 diameter hose, but any size hose should work, because you do not need full water pressure, only enough to achieve the drip rate you want.

I think what you need to consider is a pump's Head Rating. And, Head Pressure. You can get a much more powerful pump for not that much more money. I wouldn't suggest this for much other than say powering a media reactor.

I only used it on the thin balloons. I'm sure it will also work on the other sizes. However, it was really hard to get it to even blow up the thin balloons without exerting a lot of effort and taking a long time. I wouldn't recommend this as the best method. I'm sure there are way better pumps out there.

I used a small electric air pump. it works really well. I use it to fill all my inflatable rafts and pool. you can buy it at any store that sells summer rafts and pools. it's so much faster this way. but be careful not to over inflate. hope this helps.
