ATTN: AquaC Urchin Users Please

[shine~on]

Ive had my Urchin in sump skimmer going for a few weeks now and every now and then it will spew some air bubbles into the sump and back into the tank. This is getting pretty annoying as they stick to the wall and rocks and look ugly.
I was wondering if any of you have had this same problem and when can I expect it to go away?
Thanks.

Actually while I'm at it, I got the skimmer from ***DELETE***and got the drain fitting and have that going down to a plastic cup. The cup gets filled up with green junk but it is liquidy and there is just like a slime coating in the overflow cup thing.
Is this normal?

well the remora and urchin skimmers are know for shooting out bubbles into the tank or sump, they even sell a skimmer box for the remora to stop the bubble release into the tank, what I would do if you have the sump room is set up a 3 baffle bubble trap in the sump, you should make it where the water goes over one baffle then under the second one and over the third one into the chamber with the return pump, the second baffle should go into the water some so that the bubbles get trapped, also you should probably adjust the skimmer cup to get a darker thicker skimmate

Do you have a remora/urchin??
What exactly is the "baffle", a netting of some sort?
How do I adjust the skimmer cup? I thought it was all "automatic?"
