skimmer bubbles?

[yozzer]

Just finished cycling my tank and fitted a Out of sump skimmer today with Aqua Bee 2000 pump. Put both outlet and inlet into final reservoir of 3 chamber sump. My problem is that thousands of tiny bubbles are being fed into my main tank from my return pump!

The water column in the skimmer is just reaching the neck as recommended so not sure what to do?

I thought of running the return from the skimmer into the first chamber of the sump? is that the right thing to do? But the skimmer is clearly designed to just use the final chamber.

Any suggestions?

you could try running the inlet from the first chamber and the outlet into the second to reduce the amount of microbubbles going into the tank. alternatively you could try placing a piece of acrylic or pvc pipe between the skimmer outlet and the return pump inlet to "catch" the bubbles and allow them to collect.
