Basspro has rounded ones. A regular car battery should be ok for that aerator. Check and see how many amps it draws. Like John I use a cord to the cigarette lighter. I don't know what kind of vehicle you have, but if it is possible, the barrels they use for detergents at the car wash work well. You can lie them down or stand them up. They are 55 gals. I believe. I use one and so do many other people. The scales are a big problem, I made a cover that goes over the inlet tube on my pump. I use a bilge pump. A guy I met at the herring run also used a bilge pump, but his was similar to your pump. He place it in netting or panthose, and used a rope to hang it a few inches off of the bottom of his tank. It seemed to work well. I also use ammo carb, it can be purchased at many pet stores. It comes in a mesh bag, just rinse it under cool running water for a couple of seconds, then drop it in with the fish.
