I’m getting tons of micro bubbles from sump. I turned off skimmer and it not coming from skimmer. I’ve moved overflow drain farther over and still bubbles. I think it is coming from roller mat 1st drain. I’m not sure how to stop this but it is making me very anxious with bubbles in my tank.

Water calrity is everything for me lol.

Can anyone help?

Likely the water level above the return pump is low allowing the pump to suck in air and water

Can you show a picture of the fleece roller or post a link to a youtube video that you uploaded, and also show the microbubbles?
