solved the problem. was a little water in the air line so i blew it out, and shorted the tube going to the pump so the pump was closer to surface.

hi there,
just wondering if you are having problems controlling the amount of micro bubbles being discharged from the outlet to the tank. i cant seem to get them to go away. i am using it as a hang on. any advice?

Has anybody used a 65gal super skimmer on a 20gal? Does anyone think it might be overkill with microbubbles and such? Thanks

I did this and it cut way down on the microbubbles.
