bubbles in main tank

[reefer504]

I just finished addind a sump to my 75g reef now it's full of tiny bubbles.I am using a DIYsump made out of a 29g and I am using a 1400 gph Lifereef Overflow with a Magdrive1200 for a return pump.

Does anybody have any suggestions as to what I can do to stop the bubbles.


Thanks

Some type of baffling system in the sump is the best way to diffuse them. I always used an under, over, under system which allowed them to accumulate in the center, preventing them from being returned.

Do you think this is where my propblem is the water is being overflowed into the last chamber?
