rena filter creating microbubbles, help!

[ReeferBill]

Ok, So I just moved my 75 gallon to its new place, and the rena(X3), is constantly pushing out microbubbles. Anyone have problems with this, and have suggestions. Its must be positional, since it never did it before(2 years), but I cant figure it out. Please help.
Thanks
Bill

JR,

Thanks for the link. Nothing about microbubbles though. I have heard this happened to others in the past, but dont remember how they fixed it. I am just worried it will affect my corals. I have some nicer chalices and scolys.

Ok, just re-read it, and I am going to try the o-ring. Thanks for the link yellowtang.

When ever I service a filter of that type with o-rings I make sure all the o-rings are coated lightly with silicone lube so the oring will slide and not get twisted up. they almost never need replaced unless they get a nick in them.

I will try that. It seems to be putting out less now, but if it continues, I will use the silicone. Thanks for the help.
