micro bubbles everywhere

[nanonøkk]

ok so i posted a while ago about micro bubbles being everywhere and i raised my water level i thought that was it but then i did that and still so then i thought oh it’s the tube and connectors so i whent through today and fixed them and still micro bubbles everywhere everything’s tight and everything i dont know what i’m doing wrong and it’s driving me crazy and i dont have a skimmer i also thought it would be the random flow generator i put on but they where more present without it on

Is it a new setup? That can be a problem at first but once biofilms form it subsides.

Edit- looks like it isn't new. Can you find the source?

I have a ton of micro bubbles also with no skimmer, it is from the drains of my overflow they produce a ton of bubbles.

Put in a sponge somewhere before your return pump you should pretty quickly find the source.

Pull the pump and put it in a container suitable to fit it and then run it and see if it is getting bubbles.

I was able to break mine up in one tank with use of filter socks
