I have a substantial amount of micro bubbles coming through my return into the tank. I am out of ideas on how to stop them. ???
What I have tried:
3 panel bubble trap in sump (under/over/under)
Filter media inside bubble trap
Filter floss inside bubble trap
Filter media and filter floss together in bubble trap
elbow on return pump pointed downward to pull bottom 3/4" of water from sump
made sure the anti-siphon on the return in the overflow is below the water
added filter media on output of skimmer
ran a day w/o the skimmer
From the mag 9 return pump it is hard pvc until 6" before the bulkhead then it is barb fitted and clamped to silicone tubing. No water is leaking out since the tank (AGA RR 90) was installed 6 months ago. I have had this problem since the tank was installed, but thought everything would break in and the bubbles would stop.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
