    OK I think I have my new skimmer hooked up correctly at least it seems to be working like all other skimmers I have seen on tanks.

    Its a Hang on Back and it is putting alot of bubbles back into my tank. Is there a simple way to stop this from happening?

    I can see why it is happening but no real fix I can think of...

    Model is a Odyseaa PS75, I know they are cheap but it seems to work rather well as far as I can tell. just puts alot of bubbles back into the tank.

    if it's brand new, skimmer usually require a break in period. The bubbles should get less. If there is a water level adjuster you can mess with that to see if that helps or you can modify it by placing a sponge or filter floss in the return.
