Micro Bubble Mystery

[gizzo12]

So I have a guess as to where it’s coming from but I need other opinions. Where could the micro bubbles be coming from? I think it’s the skimmer because I don’t think that’s the right level. The baffle was only 6”

Skimmers....especially newly installed ones...always tend to create micro bubbles until they are fully broken in.

agree

FYI: The breaking in process can take 2+ weeks...so be patient.

It is used but you mean new to my tank I’m assuming. So it’s not the water level?

Yeah, new to the tank. If you read up on skimmers...micro bubbles is a common issue when they are first installed. It usually goes away after a few weeks time.
