I’m not able to view your video (probably me not you), but you may want to turn off you skimmer pump and see if the issue continues. Good luck!

Might have a air pocket in your UV. My UV had air trapped it in it doing the same thing.

You might can put some type of filter pad in between skimmer and return section if possible. That way it will stop micro bubbles getting into return.

Normally you want the skimmer in the chamber before the bubble trap. That's probably why you're getting bubbles.
