how to stop bubbles from a powerhead

First find out where the bubbles are coming from. If you are running air in the tank, if the powerheads are to close to the surface, if your are using a UG with air in the tank, it may burp up bubbles.
Reefscape is right. I have an airstone running on the along the backside of my tank. On one end i have the intake for my Fluval Canister. Some of the bubbles from the airstone gets sucked into the intake and out comes tiny bubbles everywhere.
Also a follow up question...Is this bad for my FOWLR.????

Is it bad for your LR? Not really. sponges dont take to air kindly but most everything else on the rock wont be a problem. If you think about the wave surge that you get in the ocean, a burst of air every now and then wont make a diference.
