Small fountain spitters with plenty of character
A spitter adds a small stream of moving water to a pond edge or a separately equipped container feature. Choose the style you enjoy, then match the pump and tubing to that particular model. The decorative figure does not create its own flow and should not be treated as a complete fountain unless a kit is explicitly listed.
Can I use an existing pump?
If it can supply the required flow at the installed height and connect appropriately. A shared pump circuit also needs enough capacity for its other outlets.
Place the water stream before finishing the edge
Set the spitter on a stable surface and test where the stream lands. Height, pump flow and wind affect the return, so leave room to adjust it. Route the tube neatly without tight kinks and ensure the water falls back into the pond or reservoir.
Check the small parts in the package
Tubing sizes and supplied lengths vary. A model may need a different connection or minimum pump flow from another figure in the same range. The pump, reservoir and decorative surroundings should be ordered separately unless the contents list includes them.
Does a spitter provide enough aeration for fish?
It creates movement, but should not be relied on as the complete aeration provision for a stocked pond. Size the pond’s life-support equipment separately.
