The output pipe puts out tons of micro bubbles all over the tank. I'm ordering the bubble stopper but it will take a week to arrive. How do I deal with it short term? Thankssss.
 
I cut a piece of dense sponge to cover the outflow pipe and zip tied it on. Helped reduce bubbles but not totally eliminate them.

Then I positioned it so the outflow points toward the back of the tank. This is the only pic where you can kinda see it...
