Microbubbles R a pain!!

I know this question has been asked, but since i didn't have this problem at the time, i didn't read it
My 90 g tank is about a week into cycling and my Coralife skimmer (sump) is making microbubbles! It was fine until today....it's been skimming since the day after i had it running. How do i get rid of them? Why would it be fine and then all of a sudden start making them?
Thanks!

Thats what baffles in the sump are for, to allow the bubbles to off gas before hitting the return pump section.
