    Too Much Air in Tank

    Thanks for all your help. It turns out that the fitting which connects the locline with the 90 deg angle was letting in the air. I added some more tape and and gave it an extra turn and the problem has been solved. Thanks again!

    Too Much Air in Tank

    Too Much Air in Tank

    I’m so new at this that I have a tank with LR but don’t have any fish yet! I’m setting up my tank and have a lot of air bubbles in the tank. The tank is 65 gal with MegaFlow return. There is a 15 Gal sump with a protein skimmer, sock and return pump. The pump is completely covered with water...
