My sump is feeling rather... Bubbly...

[Max!]

I think my sump is mad I don't have a skimmer yet so it's taking the micro-bubbling into it's own hands... lol!

Ideas? The return is submerged below the water level in a sock. Ignore the sponge <3

Check your drain to see if you have a vortex above it, that will suck air like crazy. If so, then you'll need to add a bit more water.

Using a durso - could that still happen somewhere? Should I toggle the ball valve?

Durso? Try the valve

plumbing is brand new and had a little micro leak causing it to take in air. Thanks for making me take a look Phil!
