Hey peeps,

I'm running a marineland 360 canister filter. It's been up and running for 6 weeks now, cleaned once 3 and a half weeks ago. For some reason I am getting microbubbles (mb) from the return flow. The mb aren't happening constantly, they come in little spurts; I can hear that it's going to happen, before the mb come out there is a noise, it kind of sounds like squeezing a wet rag. It happens about every 10 min approximately. Anyone have any idea what's going on? Any ideas on how to fix it? Thanks in advance for any info you can provide!
 
Its trapped air. Shake the can and reprime it a few times. Leaning it back to where the output is higher than the canister will help.
