Micro Bubble Problem

[CanadianKeeper]

I seem to have ALOT of micro bubbles being spat out of my tanks output valve.. Also ALOT floating around in my tank... Should I get a smaller bubbler ? How can I solve this ? Pics attached

do you use aqua safe or anything that says it helps there slime coat any chemicals at all ? if so stop they act like dish soap . otherwise just cut back on the air pressure you will get less but bigger bubbles. also keep the bubbler away from the filter intake

STOP using aqua safe? Im going to get a smaller air pump also

Your fx5 probably needs to be cleaned.

I'm getting the same issue on a brand new fx5 setup with no air stone. I wonder if the lid is improperly sealed?
