Hmmm. From what I can see in the pictures of your other thread the feeds to your overflows are from the bottom? I've never seen that before and I'm not sure how common it is. Mind you, I've been in the reef hobby only 2 1/2 years. Maybe someone else can chime in on that.
FWIW, here's a pic of what I've got. That's one of those thick scubber pads. Helps prevent "****" going into the overflow. Probably no help to you though, if yours is fed from the bottom.
I also noticed in your other thread that you had Fluval and Eheim canisters on your previous tank. Are you running those on this tank?
I see two grey hoses on the right side of your sump. Are these for a Fluval canister?
I run a Fluval 405 canister on my reef sump and I get microbubbles from it because it doesn't completely seal properly and draws in air.
Just throwin' ideas out there.
