Hello and advice please

Hi FishLore.
Please can you advice about the air bubbles are underneath my rocks. 4 weeks into a cycle.
Thanks

I have a few never had any issues. I always tilt and move the rock around in the water befor placing it down. You can alway just reach in a grab it and flip it a few times

Micro bubbles trapped under the rocks.
Are you injecting air into a powerhead?

 

[Benweston]

Thanks for the response.i have glued all my rocks so I can't flip or move them around.
No I am not injecting air into a powered. Do you think I should do anything before adding fish. My cycle is nearly over.

Is it coming from a skimmer

I did get air bubbles like that right after setting up my tank for the first time but they went away after a few days. Do you think you can remove them with your fingers and see if they come back?

By the way...Welcome to R2R

Welcome, really pretty rock scape. What size tank is it and what do you plan to stock it with?

change the flow pattern. More flow in that area and problems solved.

Agree change flow around, looks like "ceiling" and it's just holding bubbles, amazing rock set up looks great!

 

[Benweston]

Thanks chris/Brian.
I will change things around and see what happens. It is only a 30 gallon tank. I plan just a couple of corals and a couple of very small fish. Only doing it for the kids. I had a 90 gallon before many years ago until i moved. My daughter wanted a fish tank but could not bare to look at a freshwater tank. So I thought I would do this. She has help do a lot. Thanks all and I will try changing flow around.

I get these under my Monty cap sometimes I just use a Turkey baster fill it with water and spray them out.

They won't hurt anything, and welcome!

 

[Benweston]

I removed the air bubbles and changes the flow but they came after 1 day

 

[Lowell Lemon]

Welcome and hope you solve the mystery of where the bubbles are comming from.

Welcome to R2R! Just take a turkey baster and blow the air out of the rock.

 

[Chibils]

Take a turkey baster or similar, squeeze all the air out of the bulb, and stick it under that rock. Release the bulb and try to suck up the trapped air. Done!

Nevermind, I should read better.
