Simplicity 120DC skimmer Microbubbles issue

[havoc_one]

Hi everyone.

I have read many of the forums and threads, reviewed the videos, and blogs and cannot seem to even slow the production of Microbubbles from my Simplicity 120DC skimmer. I have it elevated to 8 inches, factory specs indicate 7-9 is ideal. I have tuned it a couple of times to try and reduce this but to no avail. I’m at a loss for what might be causing these to spill out. Seems like they aren’t going up like they should.

attached a video.
Tank is a 90g cube. Seems to be producing foam pretty well, skimming properly

Looks like its producing correctly. Have you added anything to the system lately??

Negative - It has been doing this since day 1, despite retuning. I DID turn it around last night, thinking it might be a flow issue and it seemed to help minutely. I then stacked some bio-media and foam around the outlet and that cut back quite a bit.

well, how old is it?

New skimmers will take up to a couple of weeks to settle in

Months. It has been running and skimming since July.

Mine bubbles out of the grey tube you turn to tune it. The valve? Well micro bubbles flow out of that.
I cannot seem to fix this issue
