So I have a UNS 90LA tank, which in my opinion is very poorly designed, I am using their protein skimmer and return pump and they all have a designated space to be put int, the middle slot is for protein skimmer while the slot right next to it is for the pump, currently I realized my pump has been blowing tons of micro bubbles daily. any idea what tool or anything I can do to avoid this from happening?

Thanks

I’m not familiar with this particular brand but often a sponge can be used to block out the tiny bubbles?
