airline stabilizer!
Try this...get a piece of rigid water line like the type and size used to connect the water supply to the ice maker of a `fridge. Cut the length so it will fit flat on the bottom of your tank and stay an inch or so away from the sides of the tank. This is the hose you put your holes in, and then use a lighter to seal off one end or you can make a loop using the valve that came in your kit for a more even flow of bubbles. Attach the rubber hose that came with the kit to the rigid hose by slipping the rubber hose over the rigid and then tighten-seal using a zip tie. I've then attached that to a piece of 1" PVC about 6" in length with a couple more zip ties. This rig will sit nicely in the bottom of your tank where it belongs, give pretty good agitation and introduces no foriegn elements to your chemistry. Hope this helps out
