If you have an air pump running 24/7, is it still necessary to fan in a PMP?

i was considering putting a pump inside my chamber and runnning a hose to the outside to pump air out of the chamber. i would punch some holes at the top of the chamber and fill them with polyfill to provide an air inlet. is there any reason i've not heard of anyone doing this? would that lower the RH too much?

Nope dont need to fan a PMP. I would though every time I take the top off to look at my babies though (like once a day) just cause your right there. Just wave the top or a piece of cardboard for like 20-30 seconds over the chamber. This would make sure theres no pockets of c02 sitting on the side if you have a small air wand or stone. Like I said not needed but can't hurt.
Pumping air out has been done, just not usually like what your saying. It's not really done usually because there are easier ways to go about it. Fan's could do that too, thats usually how people pump air out (small computer fan on the side). But it can mess with your humidity alot. If your talking to run it constantly then no it won't work because you will not keep up humidity in there.
In order to have a constant way for air exchange that air must be humid. The best ways to do this are the PMP (air pump under water) and cool mist humidifiers.

kramer has air pumping out of his pmp right now... air gets pumped in it's got to get out some how...right? are you just saying that we should put the actual pump on the inside? there by sucking air into the pmp? are you stoned too?
