I had a bubble curtain in the tank which Goomer loved to play in and as the air pump I have had 2 outlets decided to add a biggish air stone under the sump filter outlet to help water movement Goomer either loves it or hates it he's been hyperactive and never shy since day one but he dart's in and out of the bubble stream off the new stone it's weird
he is very healthy and fit for a baby O and always hungry

might try moving the air stone ?

and see I think he likes bubbles up his arse lol

The purpose of life’s journey is not to arrive at the grave with a well-preserved body, but rather to Slide in Sideways, completely used up, yelling and screaming, what a ride!

I'm sure he likes it...If he didn't he would avoid it.

My O likes to swim through the bubble current and he also swims up to me when I'm doing a water change and seems to enjoy having the water poured on him.

And no, you can't really ave too much oxygen, although I've heard that a ton can raise Ph

I wouldn't worry about it, I'm sure it's fine.

too much air??? if it is from a air pump or compressor, it wouldn't matter
at all but if it comes from too much rippling the discharge point of the
filter pump, it will give a chance to injure your fishes..... not the air the
discharge produces but from the high pressure water....

As long as the water flow due to the air bubbles doesnt make it too hard for your oscar to swim, i wouldnt worry about it
I can't get no sleep

If you have only air and no water, that would be bad for fish.

Good point. So I guess you can have too much oxygen...
