OleMiss is correct...I think you may have misunderstood..
Water agitation is good on the top surface to oxygenate the tank, with power heads to create a current, making a little ocean with waves for saltwater.
Bubbles are only good for freshwater.

so just break the surface of the water a little bit as long as it doesn't make microbubbles? i have a powerhead with a filter on it. sometimes it shoots out little bubbles. why is this? is this going to be a problem??

Yes..you don't want it shooting tiny bubbles. Why do you have a filter on it?

UMM why not a filter or why no bubbles?
Why not bubbles...read OleMiss' post
Why not a filter...it’s causing the power head to shoot bubbles.
A corse filter can be placed on a power head to keep an anemone from being sucked up. It is not enough of a filter to inhibit the water flow and cause bubbles.
Keeping a critter from being sucked up is he only reaon I know of to put a filter on a power head.

When the filter gets clogged it has to work extra hard to push the water through, the force causes bubbles.
