Bubbles Bubbles Bubbles - Aerator

My tank's aerator sure seems to make a lot of bubbles in the tank to the point it's not that clear .

anything I can do about it?

 

Not sure what you mean by aerater,do you have some sort of airstone in tank or is it a protein skimmer?If it is a skimmer,what kind or brand is it?

 

I have aeratorion ie the tube that pumps water back into my tank thats IN the tank has holes and produces bubbles. LOTS of them

 

Pics would help alot here.

 

white tube has drilled holes at the bottom.

hopefully you can see the bubbles. I've thought about making the section longer and moving it to the bottom but I don't know what that would solve

the pump from the sump below is pumping water into that white pvc as the return to the tank and lots of bubbles

 

Seems likeyour return line from sump is picking up air from a leak and its having a venturi effect mixing the air and water.Try to find where the air is getting in.It could be at the pump itself if the water level in your sump is to low.

 

Your hole should be at the top and not at the bottom. If you were to lose power your DT would drain out

 

Dt?????

 

display tank.

 

I lost power the other day. all it does is reverse siphon and fills up my lower tank. it stops when the water level is below the skimmer
