What kind of bubbles are they like micro bubbles ? Are you running a skimmer? It could be bubbles from too much flow through the sump or I have seen a poorly glued fitting with the water running past it wasn't leaking but would pull in air. That I see the mag is at 950 gph it could be too much turnover through the sump they recommend usually 3 to 5 times. The thought behind this is the water is flowing too fast for bubbles too settle out and can become turbulent. Do you have a ball valve on the return ?
