    Yes, my AquaC Remora, which has been running for over 6 months gives off a lot of microbubbles. TRUST ME.. I have tried EVERYTHING trying to get rid of the bubbles... switching my dechlorinizing solution, cutting up a foam piece and putting it into the outflow chamber of the skimmer, used the preskimmer, etc... nothing worked. Microbubbles still there. It annoys the heck out of me:mad: . I am currently in the planning stages of building a 10 gallon sump with some baffles that will hopefully clear up the microbubble issue. If not, i'm throwing the tank out the window.;)

    Its funny, they actually use the appearence of the box as a selling point because it hides the p/h. 3" p/h vs. 8" black box.

    but....if you have a black background (as i do), you can't even see the black box. ;)
