if you're getting microbubbles check first the pump to see if there are any bubbles there from anything (water spilling over a baffle is a usual suspect), if nothing there then air is getting in via your plumbing, do you have an anti-siphon hole above the waterline or something?

no i have no anti siphon hole. pump is mounted external. i will have to check on air getting in where i prime pump at may be i don't have enough teflon tape on the cap. the loop i made looks like the one on melevsreef.com.

If it is a new CL and the micro bubble problem is to, a small air leak is definately the problem.
