Hi Bro

What skimmer you using?

Here's my 2 cents:

1. Extend the skimmer return pipe into the sump (lowrer then the sump water level).

2. Flow down the skimmer return on coarse sponge to "absord" as much micro bubbles as possible.

Also notice that you have a metal clip on your return pump. Its is getting rust. Even stainless steel clip can rust too in salt water for a long period of time. This will introduce un-necessary "tonx" into your tank. What hose are you using on your return? 16/22 or 22/25 (Eheim sizing)? I might have plastic clip for 16/22 hose for you to secure your hose to your return pump. Not free! At least a cup of coffee in my coffee shop. Ha ha....

What model is your return pump? Some pumps can have the output fixture screw out. I might have the fixture to fix your pump that comes with a locking device for the hose. Let me know the made and model.

I do have lots of Eheim stuff.

Ehiem stuff will cost you 1 "Tiger" not "Thai Girl".
