I have 5 juwel tanks and the oxygen level is ok. You can add an airstone run
by a seperate airpump and tube, on the left side there is another cutout on
lid on most lids. Which juwel is it? You can also put a higher powerhead on
as well, as more movement increases oxygen, or angle the black outflow tubes
differently.. My vision 260 came with the 1000l/h and I have recently
changed it to the new 1500l/h as my clown loaches like more flow. I have put
a smaller one on rio125, changed it from 600 to 400l/h as my angels don't
like too much flow and they have no problem with oxygen even though the temp
is 82. If the tank is overstocked that may cause a problem too.
