Mini bubbles flowing out of return nozzles?

[JacksonReef]

I just set up a 13.5 gal evo with a skimmer mini bubbles are flowing from return nozzles into my tank tank up and running for 3 days?

My first guess is from the skimmer. If you turn the skimmer off and wait a few minutes do you still see bubbles?

I turned off the skimmer bubbles disappeared it is a new skimmer.

Okay, is there anyway to incorporate a sponge between the skimmer and return of the evo?

take the cup off. itll help till the body of the skimmer gets coated. you could try to raise the skimmer too.

Take the cup off for how long and while it is running?
