I added a closed loop to my tank at Christmas. I went with a T4 with a 1 inch intake, and two 3/4 inch returns. I cant figure out where the bubbles are coming from. The intake is 1 inch and sealed tight, I can here little noises of bubbles getting chomped by the impeller however I cant figure out where the air is getting in?

Has anyone else had this problem? the pump seems bullet proof and I dont believeit is getting in there. All connections are clamped tight with hose clamps. Thanks for any help, heres a few pics I cnat figure out how to just post them so ill put my URL.

Thanks for your help

Welcome to canreef! If you do a search for bubbles, you'll find a thread started by one_divided regarding the same thing about 6 weeks ago. If you can't find it, let me know and I'll take a look.

Where's Tsawwassen and isn't Zulu from there? I thought it was some pseudo-mythical desert city in Africa, like Timbuktu.
