Bubbles problem???

[nymotts]

I have a new red sea max and there is bubbles shooting out of the 2 pumps and was wondering if anybody has any ideas on how to stop this from happening?

Also any anybody have detailed instructions on how to work a timer with those wheels with those swicthes? Thanks

Is this what you are talking about?

Where did you buy it, maybe they can help. Are all the plumbing lines to the pumps secure with some type of clamp? Are the bubbles coming from the skimmer..or? Is there some type of bubble trap incorporated into the design after the skimmer? All skimmers put out bubbles....and when we build sumps to accomodate them, we build bubble traps{steps that the water has to go under & over} out of something like glass or acrylic to eliminate them.

On the timer, do you mean this kind?

Thanks for the info i will have to check the 2 pumps make sure there tight. I don't think that it is the skimmer. I have to learn how to use the timer and figure out how to use the other light and wave timer on my other tank...Thanks again..
