need some help with the crp back pac

My main issue right now is with micro bubles going back into the tank. I put a filter sponge in the outflow to stop the bubbles and it is working somewhat. I still havent goten much skimate. The skimer is the crp 2+reef ready w/ the maxijet 1200,and it has been running for two days. My salinity is just under 1.023 will that effect i?. Any Ideas would be great, thanks.

Have you done the airstone modifiction yet? they do sell a bubble trap for them also. I just put a filter sock on mine

got it working just needed to open up the valve more. Go figure more bubles less escape!

now that I got the damm thing working it is loud! is there anyway to quiet it short of putting it in a sump under a cabinet?
there is a venturi scilencer @ work I could try but it seems like the pump is the loutest part next to the bubbles.
