The air pump you've always needed is here. Keep your aquarium water well-oxygenated and your fish healthy in absolutely any scenario — even when the power is out. To give you peace of mind, the Aquarium Co-Op air pump utilizes a rechargeable lithium-ion battery that automatically switches to battery use if it loses power. It can be run continuously for approximately 20 hours on a single charge and can run in Power Save mode (where the air cycles between 15 seconds on and 15 seconds off to conserve battery) for 40 hours or more. Note: the printed manual has not been updated yet and incorrectly states that the battery runs for 8 and 16 hours.

Kim B. (Chesterton, IN, US)

Thank you, Cory. The relief I feel is immense.

Our power has been out for (currently) 40 hours. (NW Indiana had some tornadoes come through on June 11, 2026, and power is, of course, getting repaired as fast as they can). I have 3 ACO dual air pumps, each connected to an elevated ACO smallish sponge filter. I have one each on an overstocked 65 gallon cichlid tank, as well as a 75 and 55 gallon overstocked, but heavily planted, tanks. I keep the pumps running despite the canister filters on each tank, because power outages aren’t planned, right?

The night the power went out, I didn’t panic, because I knew your pumps would take over. And they did. Big time. Every single fish has survived. No one is gasping for air. They’re all in chill, sleepy mode.

I also have a single outlet ACO air pump that was fully charged, and I use that to supply the tanks on a rotating basis as I recharge the dual ones for each tank.

My fish will be fine, because I trust you, your products, and I planned ahead for emergencies. Real world experience of 40 hours (and counting).

Thank you. I’ll see you in Lexington, to buy more!

Works Great

I bought this pump in case of a power outage and it performs perfectly. The power went out and the sponge filter continued to pump. What a relief. I must also say it runs very quietly.
