OK...I have never had a micro bubble issue with this skimmer....well I do now....SO I figured it may need to be cleaned.....I took it apart (as much as you can) cleaned the impeller (YUCK IT WAS BAD)....and everything else I could
Put it back on.....It's got great foam now, BUT still a ton of microbubbles....they seem like they are coming from the pump though....I have a new accela pump....should I just change it out
OR...is there something else I should check?????

HMMMM....they seem to be subsiding....there are just a few now
maybe they will all go away (I HOPE)
I must ask....WHY THE HECK do skimmer manufacturers make skimmers that you can NOT clean, It is impossible to get to all the spots
I just cleaned my Remora for the first time.....no way you can get thru the container of that one either

OH WELL....what I did get clean has got to be better then nothing...
Now off to clean the cascade for the 54G

cleaned out the cascade...put it back together IT LEAKS
.....so I put some stuff on the gasket, let it sit....now it only has a teeny drip.....workable though
I have a new gasket on the way...DARN,.....I KNOW I should have these things here already
