Maine metals power bubbles. 5 gallon bucket with liner. No problems but in severe heat, I'll add a frozen water bottle a couple times a day.
$50 for power bubbles but been running for 3 years on 3 boats with no troubles, which is about 9 months for a regular fella. Keep your battery bubbler in your boat with batteries for a spare. Either that or fish where Yikess fishes.

This is the system that I put on my boat in my front livewell! My lowes boat has built in minner buckets. Easy to do and you can get replacement air stones at Wally World.

That system was one of the first things I installed on my boat when I got it new in 2008. And whats great about it I fill my livewell up at the house with water and then put my minners in it. Then I turn the pump on and head to the lake. Normally I have at least an hour drive from the house.
I like the time delay on Auto or the manual settings on that switch. Works great for me.
X2... I mounted a switch on my dash and hard wired the unit. It has two air pumps and two outlets. I have one going to live well and one going to minner bucket. I bought unit at BPS.Quote:
