    My pump on my solana has been producing a lot of bubbles . I think the water level in the pump chamber is lower than it should be but the protein skimmer and media chambers have more water than they should? My though is that the pumps top side is exposed and is sucking air? Has any one had this happen?

    If you add more water the pump chamber should fill up to a higher level. If it doesn't, you should probably check to make sure there is nothing blocking the flow in the rear filtration section.
