Initial:

Skimmer has been running for 8 months, it's broken in.
Water Level is 8->8.5 inches from the bottom of the sump

Problem:
Tons of microbubbles from the output.
I do dose Vinegar(carbon)
When I break down the skimmer, and clean it throughly, removing pump etc, it minimizes the bubbles, but after a few weeks the microbubbles return en mass and flood the display.

Are there any other adjustments to make? The skimmer is functional and works well otherwise.

Thanks!

Are you running carbon? Also, the skimmer should be in 7"-8" of water. You are running it a little deep.

Raising the skimmer and then running activated carbon will take care of the micro bubble issues.
