any idea on what to do about the tiny micro bubbles from the skimmer into the tank. I absolutely love the skimmer it's performance but I don't like the haze that the bubbles create..

TIA

If the skimmer is less than a few weeks old the micro bubbles are normal and will subside with time. The Remora pre-skimmer box has also been reported to help reduce the micro bubbles.

I have had the Remora a couple of months, and my friend has had it a year, and the bubbles still appear. You kind of learn to ignore them. Great skimmer though.

Put a little shim under the outflow to raise that side about 1/8"...it'll skim better even if it doesn't rid you of the micro bubbles.

Some people have used foam block on the spill way, but these need to be cleaned often.
