    as i dont have a sump, i hav an intank skimmer, due to which im getting too many micro bubbles. is it ok or is it bad for fish and corals. even if i keep a sponge, i still get many bubbles. im more worried about my fish and corals then the look of the bubbles in the tank.

    Bubbles are completely harmless in the aquarium.

    I would think if these bubbles are coming from the skimmer it would be problem some
    Is there a way you can tighten the seal

    agreed while visually annoying they really dont affect corals or fish in the tank. think about the ocean there are tons of bubbles ;D
