air bubbles everywhere

My tank has hundreds, thousands, millions of little itty bitty air bubbles in the tank. I have no clue where they are coming from. the protein skimmers are in the 1st and 2nd compartents of the filter and the return pump and pump for the uv sterilizer are in the last chamber. Does anyone know how to get rid of the bubbles. They drive me nuts, it looks so terrible. and NO I don't have an air stone. Thanks-TJ

Is there any way you can add a couple of up and down water baffles,with foam or sponge in your sump before the return pump? If there comming out of the sump,that would do it. Any powerheads pointed to hard at the surface? Any pumps sucking air? Check all fittings for loose clamps. They dont have to be leaking water to be sucking air(common problem) Check all clamps often.
