Default Aerating coolant, do I need a "stone" or not

I finally visited Wal-Mart and bought two timers. I want to run the
skimmer off of one timer, and aerator (fishtank style air pump) on
another timer.

My question is, do I need a stone on the aerator, or not. I am
concerned that the stone will eventually become plugged by coolant
residue. If bubbling water without a stone is a little less efficient,
I do not think that I care too much.

Any thoughts on this?

I think a piece of tubing with very small holes laid in the bottom will give
you better results than a stone . Put the holes on the underside .
