As some of you know, I just got rid of my UGF on my 55. So, to make use of my canister filter, I bought this add-on.

I put it on Friday. Coming from it, and staying at the top of the water (and about 3-4 inches deep) are incredibly small micro-sized bubbles. It almost looks like debris. I lowered the flow coming out of those 2 biowheels, and it's still there. It's not clouding up my water really, since they're floating, but I don't like it. Will this "break-in" once the bio-wheels get a significant amount of bacteria on them? I would figure inadequate rinsing of the wheels (if that was the case) still would've cleared up by now. The Penguin Bio-wheel 330 I got for my 29 does ever-so-slightly the same thing, but no where near as bad. Forgive me, but these are my first bio-wheels. TIA
