Micro bubbles in 30 gallon jbj

[Chrisfish]

Has anyone had problems with micro bubbles when they set up their tank? Are they bad and what can I do? I'm transferring my 8 gallon over to this new tank. Thanks!

Thanks it's only one pump that is doing it right now so I shut it off and just running one, it's really stressing me out, I'm kinda sorta a newby. :rolleyes:

itll get a slime coat like a skimmer does and settle in.
thats the least stressful thing you have goin right now really:D
let em run the way the should and bump the pump occasionally to "bleed it"
call it extra "gas exchange"

Yeah I haven't even set up the skimmer, are the bubbles bad for the fish and corals? And btw thanks so much for your help. :)

no. not really. if its BAD prob avoid it. But if its a little no. How long has it been doing this.

It started today, I started setting this tank up yesterday, I'm transferring everything from my 8 gallon tank to this one, I have a thread for it, " my 30 gallon jbj has arrived" but no response so I got desperate :D , I have one clown, one fire ice goby, peppermint shrimp and some cuc. , live sand which is new but Live rock is from my other tank and I added at least 4 gallons of my tank water. and some corals. I love this tank but this is giving me a lot of stress. :rolleyes:

its all good. its gonna be great. if you have corals cover some of the leds with tape. Acclimate the corals unless you have a dimmer.
See...I told you you had better things to stress about.
The bubbles will be gone tomorrow.:)
If thats not enough stress come over to my house. :eek:
