Thank you sir!!! You just help me tremendously with this video. I got an FX6 for my birthday. I just set it up and after about 30 minutes it started with blowing the mini bubbles. I had no idea why so I started searching your channel and because of this video I realized my intake was directly in the middle of and air stone and was sucking the bubbles in. Unplug the air stone and my FX6 is working like the champ that it is. Thank you sir. Be Blessed!!!

Hey Kev, thanks for another helpful vid. A detail I found out that works when we get an oily surface is that when we use a suction hose, we actually suck water from under the surface. So it would take quite a few cleaning sessions to get rid of the oily surface. Thiis is why it is important to start by taking out the first quantity by using a small cup or bucket by hand, and focusing only on the surface water. After that it's the normal suction drill!

I just bought my first ever Fluvial FX6 canister. It's great but I've made a HUGE mistake. I thought the rubber gasket that seals the canister was a simple band used to hold the hoses during shipping. I cut it and threw it out. I bet you know what happened next! Micro bubbles...after watching your video, I realized my mistake. I've since ordered a new gasket and the problem was fixed. Thanks so much for the help.

Had microbubbles with my Marineland C360. Drove me nuts. Every few minutes you'd hear that "spewing" noise of air being released. GRRRR!!! Researched a ton online only to discover a boatload of unsuccessful fixes. After many weeks I finally, FINALLY discovered the solution. It has to do with the seeding of the trays inside the canister. They must be PERFECTLY seeded and aligned or you will get bubbles. Even when you think they're in there just right, they're probably misaligned. Now I use a tape measure and after placing each tray inside the canister I measure all four corners from the top of the tray to the top of the canister. All four corners need to match in measurements or else they won't be seeded properly. Perhaps this is overkill but it's better than hooking everything back up only to discover bubbles minutes later and having to re-do the whole process. Thank you for your videos Mr. KaveMan!

My FluvalFX4 started microbubbling out of the exhaust port for no reason. I've read that it could be a trapped air bubble so I simply unplugged it and large air bubbles popped out as it was adjusting its' internal pressure. Plugged it back in and microbubbles are gone. I am by no means an expert but try this before taking the filter apart, it may just need a burping.

Trapped bubbles could mean your water is oily. Something in the tank or possibly the food you're feeding is adding oil and/or dust to the tank. Water changing will eventually remove those bubbles. But you may want to try a different food.

I have a Fluval 207 canister for my 30 gallon tank. I just cleaned out my canister yesterday for the 1st time. Now I have these little tiny bubble floating around my tank. It’s not the size of the bubble my air stone makes. They’re much smaller. But it makes my tank look dirty. I’ve taken the tank apart and made sure it’s all sealed properly and there’s no leaks in the hoses. I’ve been following you for a while and saw this video. But even after doing everything you said I STILL have these tiny tiny bubbles that weren’t there before. PLEASE HELP!! :-( P.S - Congrats on the 50K Subscribers!!

First confirm if the bubbles are coming out of your output. if they are, make sure all the trays are seated properly inside, then after you close it back up and seal it. turn it on and rock the canister back and forth. side to side and front to back. Sometimes that helps releasing any trapped air inside

Would having an air stone too close to a power head also lead to the power head creating microbubbles?

I have a jbj 28 gallon nano tank. It is one of those all-in-one aquariums. I'm still doing the cycling process. I'm about 2 weeks in and it just started blowing a lot of micro bubbles. They're coming out of both ends of the return. Any suggestions on what I can do to fix this? I don't have any plans in it. I only have sand, a couple pieces of live rock, and two clownfish

I am a new tank owner- I have well water with a water softener (salt) on our home- do you think there would be any issues with using this water for my tropical fish? I’m worried now that the salt is going to burn my fish.

Shouldnt be any issues. I would still use a water conditioner like prime just to make sure its safe for the fish. Find it in my shop under essentials - koji.to/kaveman_aquatics

Yo Kev I used a vacation feeder a few weeks ago. I now have these little worms in my substrate. Never had these before using the vacay feeder. Are they harmful? I vaccummed a bunch of them out during my cleaning. Im sure they have more in there. What are these Worms? Anybody

Great video as always!💪 Quick question can you have the same color o.b. in a tank together or will they fight to much?
@KaveManAquatics
@KaveManAquatics 3 жыл бұрын
Yes you can have any mix of colors, but that doesnt mean they wont fight. Aggression happens for many reasons. My free webinar goes a bit deeper into it, check it out - event.webinarjam.com/channel/KaveMan-Aquatics

Hi kev! I have a 15 gallon tank with top filter and a built in aerator. The micro bubbles are always present in my tank. How do i get rid of them? I am new into fish keeping hobby and I badly need your help 😭
@KaveManAquatics
@KaveManAquatics Жыл бұрын
Unfortunately, it may be caused by the top filter itself. Not sure if you can, but try moving the aerator to a different spot. I'm not really experienced with those top filters.

Perfect thank you! Ive had bubbles on glass before after water change and thought it was normal!! No clearly not! I've not had the bubbles recently and thought I was doing something wrong! Clearly I was doing something wrong before! So thank you for all this information you provide!

I have 2 HOB filters so I exactly can’t move my sponge filter to a better spot so I decided to shut it off for a while and micro bubbles are still a problem. What else could be causing this?

Try re-seating the media in your filters. You could have air pockets inside of them.

Unfortunately the sand you purchased may be to fine, causing it to float up into your water column, no bueno! Give it a few days first though to see if it settles, but if not, watch this - kzbin.info/www/bejne/sH7Olpiiea5psLc
