This mighty jet return pump is brand new but shoots out so many micro bubbles.. I don’t know why. Water level is good, completely clean and nothing wrong with it. It’s driving me crazy though. If anyone has this problem// how to fix please let me know

If the bubbles were in the pump then they would run out at some point, sounds to me it is your water lvl that could be the issue or your tubing is sucking in air if any of it is above water lvl.

Try raising your water lvl, also tipping the pump on its side and giving it a wiggle under water should remove any air, but as said if it was from air in the pump, then it should eventually stop.
 

Looking back to your reefing roots: Did you start with Instant Ocean salt?
