Hello,

My protein skimmer (Reef Octopus essence 130) is constantly filling with bubbles. Like so many bubbles that it comes out of the side of the cap.

It's about 6 3/4 inches deep in water (using a riser). I have no idea what to do to prevent the bubbles. Any thoughts?

Used to work great, then for the last 2 weeks this has been an issue.
