It's actually really low. It's in the exact centre on the back panel (48x21) and it's under the overflow box. I'm not even sure they are bubbles. They could even by tiny little bits of dust from the sand bed. Every so often the pump blasts and moves the sand a little. It's on Reef Crest mode I think, and that's random. It's no problem. I don't spend much time looking at the tank anymore, anyway. After the build, the rest is boring now. But I do like my anemone.
