itsy bitsy little bubbles floating around your aquarium, they're small enough they don't float to the top, they just keep floating around and around in an infinate loop.

Have you tried any type of floss to stop them from getting to the return pump.

I have, I think I'm going to have to get a bit more, it gets dirty pretty fast..

I have my return going into a pail with a few holes drilled in it with an aquaclear 500 sponge blocking the holes..that catches quite a bit, but there are still more getting through, I have a perforated pipe on the intake of the pump and put a filter sock over it (from a magnum canister filter) and it worked alright, just got dirty real quick and caused some stress on the pump. I suppose if I get a few and just keep them in a cycle of being used or being cleaned it should would out alright...
