Micro bubbles like crazy in my 12gal help

I am trying to figure out an issue with my return pump on my aqua pod. For some reason its blowing crazy micro bubbles. My question is, is this bad for the fish? I have two clows. Some of the bubbles are actually sticking to the fish. My corals seem totally normal as do the fish, but should there be anything to worry about?

microbubbles shouldn't hurt the fish unless you have seahorses. It might cause your corals to slime. Is the return pump clogged, causing it to cavitate?
