Breaking water??
I have one of the arms from my return pump on my Solana facing the top. It really breaking the top water good. I adjusted it because I had some dead spots in the corners. I have a Tunze 792 GPH pump and its about 3/4 open. I am getting some bubbles from the water being broke. Is this OK? I do have a good ripple effect and it doesnt appear to be any dead spots now. I guess the only thing that I am concerned about is the air bubbles?

Nothing adverse will happen. They are fine. most people try to avoid them to keep their water crystal clear.

You may not want to have too much agitation at the surface of your DT as you will get salt creep from the bubbles breaking at the surface. I have "ripples" but no "breaking".
