Nano skimmer, micro bubbles?

[ReeferK]

Got a eshopps nano skimmer and just installed it yesterday, noticed a lot of micro bubbles on the tank today and found out it was the skimmer causing the issue.

Any solutions? I’d like to add a skimmer to the tank but not many options for a nano AIO

some will produce microbubbles until they're broken in.

Time is the best solution, you are in a breaking in period, which may last weeks.

I think mine always produces SOME micro bubbles, can you put the skimmer before a baffle or some foam/filter floss down stream of the skimmer

The skimmer is in the middle baffle separate from the return pump

I’ll give it some time and see if it breaks in, thanks for the advice!
