Protein skimmer dumps dubbles into tank

[danman613]

Im looking for a solution to put over the water return tube to catch bubbles without backing up the water and causing the protein skimmer to overflow. Any advice appreciated. It is a hang on the side type with about a 1in wide return in the shape of a 90% pvc pipe.

Elevate the skimmer?

Don't stick in on one of those bio blocks like Marine Pure or Brightwell. Seems like a good idea at the time

The blocks break down and the material gets into the pump, and kills it

stick the return on a submerged jar or bowl
