I am new to this forum and look forward to any advice you can provide. I have a reef tank with a new FluVal405 filter. The filter is working well, but seems to blow air bubbles in the tank. Has anyone experienced this before? If so, is it a problem? How do I correct it? Thanks in advance

Dont really know about the Fluval type filters, but with my canister filter, it was air trapped inside the system..All i simply did was manually bleed it by slightly loosen the inlet tube that goes onto the filter for a few seconds to see if that lets any air escape, if not, i did the same on the return and i could here a quick release of air out of the system and then it was sorted..some filters do come with a bleed valve so it may be worth having a quick check over the intructions that come with it..OR..it may be that you actually have an air leak on the pumps pipe work or canister, a connection that is not seated well..
Hope this helps
