    Floating debris or bubbles in tank

    Buy a 1 micron filter bag and run it in your sump for a couple of hours. Only do this while you're home because if it clogs, you can have a flood. The model number is FB1. http://www.aquaticeco.com/subcategories/1752/Felt-Filter-Bags/fb1/0 If no particulates can enter the sump, none can be...
