I'm getting crazy micro bubbles from the bottom plate of my skimmer. Is this common? Here's a video I made last night. There's a part in the video where I show what's going on. If anyone can tell me what's going on I'd be grateful

 
Shad,
That's one awesome setup that you have... ;Woot ;Woot

If the skimmer is new, micro bubbles are very common.
And... If it's a new setup they can be more pronounced too, from the low organics in your water column.

If it we me, I'd let it ride until you know that your skimmer has broken in and has a good film coat, on the inside of your skimmer.

I've never owned an BM-Curve and if any others have more advise, then please chime in.

Something does not look right. You should be getting a lot more bubbles at the top than you have. Did you make sure the bubble plate is installed per the instructions?

No. The break in is all it was, its running like a champ now.
