Saturday morning I noticed that the MJ 900 I have is blasting bubbles throughout the tank. I hoped it would stop on it's own, but no such luck. I took it out and cleaned it w/ hot water and it is still doing it, if not more.
Any ideas?

there is usually an air intake on the top of the powerhead and if this is sticking out of the water or is not bunged up the powerhead will mix bubbles with the water it powers so either push the powerhead under more or bung the hole.

It is fully submerged and there are no holes to be filled......

If this is a AP, NC, or a BC are all the compartments filled to the top? There is are two ways that this could be occurring.
1) There is a hole in the piping that water is being pushed through by the MJ.
2) The MJ is sucking air into its intake some how.
