Welcome to Reef2Reef!!! You may try raising the water level and see if that affects the bubbles. Additionally, you may find this R2R article helpful with getting started:

Is that a protein skimmer that I see sticking up in the back? (Taller rectangle box on the left?) That could be the source. Otherwise, it is probably just the turbulence of the water hitting like a waterfall. Adding rock to break the flow and raising the water level - which would happen if you add rock - should help to resolve the issue.
Welcome to the fishy family!!
 

Form or function: Do you consider your rock work to be art or the platform for your coral?
