Welcome,

No, the bubbler needs to be below the screen.

what are you using for light for the scrubber?

Desklamp with a cfl bulb
Too weak?

As for my air issue will a smaller stone solve my issue?

Will this even work in fresh water?

[SantaMonica]

Probably needs a 23w CFL.

Any size stone, that can go under the screen.

Yes works in fresh.
