also, the air stones used in fish tanks would get cloged preety easily i think. evan tho air would be pumped through it all the time, i think it would clog up preety easily. i used to have fish, and when the watter used to get dirty, the stones would sometimes clog.

Of course roots need a certain amount of air or they would suffocate. That is why there are different size particles in potting soil. These allow air as well as water to get to the roots. So soil particals make up soil stucture. Then correct soil structure doesn't need additional air.

ok ok this might have came off dumb sounding but what about a overwatered plant, and say run the pump so many sec/mins a day -weeks you know what i mean?

The air stone will most certainly clog. I do not think this will help at all.
And Joel....who the fuck are you, and did you miss your enama call?
