HomerJay Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 I am getting a lot of tiny air bubbles coming from my new Marineland Magniflow 220 Canister Filter. Any way to get it to stop? Or will it go away over time? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrozenFins Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Are the air bubbels coming from the filter or are they just stuck on the glass and decor? I find that the air bubbels will form on the glass and decor after filling the tank up. It will just go away within a few days, all though you could get a algae scruber and just scrub them off.

CT_ Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 This can happen with pumps if there's a small leak on the negative pressure side and its pulling air in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HomerJay Posted January 26, 2021 Author Share Posted January 26, 2021 Yea it’s definitely coming out of the filter. I am not worried about the bigger ones on the glass and decor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Streetwise Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 You could try shaking, tapping, or doing gentle percussive maintenance on your canister to try to get any trapped air out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT_ Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Just a note, if trapped air is the source of bubbles then every bubble means less trapped air and it should go away on its own. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
