Now that is a lot. Ok the bubbles are most common from how water gets to the sump. If it is creating a lot of bubbles getting in the sump the most likely bubbles will find there way back to you tank. Also check you fittings, I had a loose one that was not leaking water but was letting air in. Algae need nutrients. So to control algae control the nutrients they need, primarily phosfates and nitrates. There are some ways to get rid of phosfates like using phosban or the like. Also good RO/DI water will be free of phosfates. Nitrates can be reduced through water changes. The way to know what nitrates you reduced your tank by is simple, Say you do a 25% water change then you also reduced your nitrates by 25%. Just make sure that you are keeping a high quality of water in your system and most things will take care of themselves. Shaun
