Kimberly P Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 I have a nano sponge filter that has bubbles escaping from under the top. I've checked the air stone - it's not crooked. I've adjusted the length of the tubing to almost non-existent to about 1" and it keeps happening. Is there something else I can try? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBOzzie59 Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Reduce air flow until it stops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimberly P Posted May 19, 2021 Author Share Posted May 19, 2021 Ok - just tried that. In order to get the bubbles to stop, the flow is almost completely off & there are barely any bubbles in the tube. I'm stuck! Maybe a different pump?

FrozenFins Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Make sure the top (like the green disc, see picture below) is on completly! Make sure that it clicks in. I've had that same problem with co-op sponge filter and that always seemed to help. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was wondering why the sponge didn't really seem to be dirty after a couple weeks. Thank you Thank you! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
