If you want to build bubble traps into your sump you will have to drain it and add additional baffles between your skimmer section and return section.
Here is an example of a bubble trap.
Bubbles will always tend to float to the surface, so in this picture, as the water flows over the first baffle, bubbles from your skimmer will mostly stay afloat as water travels down and under the second baffle. As water is forced to flow back up and over the third baffle so are any bubbles that may have made it through to this point.
And here is an actual application of the bubble trap.

I love you guys you're always such good help
Those pictures made baffles 100% clear to me
I Will definitely be adding that third wall in, forcing the water to pass under it rather than just over.
I will try and take a pic but the water is definitely cloudy with bubbles - there are tiny tiny bubbles EVERYWHERE ARGGHHH and it seems to be getting worse
My clams and corals all still look okay except for the frogspawn he looks kinda ****ed. My 2 acan frags are loving my tank, I put them in yesterday and when they arrived they were totally flat and closed up, by the end of the day in my tank they were SUPER super fat (and still are today) and their feeding tentacles came out when the lights went off!
These are my first acans ever I'm very excited about them. The mushrooms (ricordea & yuma) Are doing well - Ricordea is totally open and fat, the yuma keeps un-attaching from the rock I glue it to and floats around in my current
I cannot get it to stick to anything! I've tried plugs, live rock, rock rubble, and my dry eco rock... I've tried glueing and letting it dry for a few minutes out of water and I've tried in the water and I tried my accelerator, I have given up! The yuma is determined to find its own place to attach in my tank and I'm going to just have to allow it do to so.
