micro bubbles

[JBsmurf]

I have read just about every forum i can find and tried just about everything i can think of. I Cant get the friggin micro bubbles caused by the drain into the sump to stay out of the display. It makes the display look hazy and its driving me nuts!!! Anyone have any suggestions?

Do you have a bubble trap in your sump?

 

[JBsmurf]

yes

Can you post some pictures of your sump and equipment setup?

filter socks can help if the bubbles are from the drain -

ill try and get some pics up asap but right between the 1st and 2nd baffle of the bubble trap there is a thick layer of foam! its like a natural-ish skimmer

Do you have a skimmer?

Maybe your tank is really cloudy??? You shouldn't have foam sitting in your bubble trap. It sounds like something else may be contributing to your situation.

A filter sock and properly set up bubble trap should do the trick.

Tell us more about your setup?

Is your trap flow over, under then over? or some other configuration?
