Do I Need An Air Stone And Pump?

[allaboutthefish]

I was just looking at my filter and saw that it pumps out air bubbles, and i was wondering if i needed an air pump as well.I have a big undergravel pump that is run buy an air pump. Do i need both undergravel and box pump? coz i rearly don't like this big pipe sticking out of the gravel, and i don't want to cover it with another plant coz i have got enough.

Any advice will be great.

you don't need an air stone and pump; they are effectively an asthetic piece of kit.

you have live plants yes? well they won't like the added oxygen so i'd advise against it

What about oxygen for the fish or does the fillter and plants provide enough?
