That should help, I hope. Sometimes after working in the back the bubbles get worse, then calm down again. And air can get trapped in the media after cleaning/replacing. At times bubbles get trapped in the powerhead fittings too - usually turning the powerhead fittings upwards for a few seconds gets rid of those. Good luck - this is probably the most difficult issue for most of us to resolve. Hopefully in a couple hours you'll see a difference.
