Anyone ever had an eclipse filter make a lot of bubbles on the surface?  They build up and get very frothy...all of the inhabitants are fine.  Is this normal?

Life is too short to wake up with regrets.  So love the people who treat you right.  Forget about the one's who don't.  Believe everything happens for a reason.  If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands.  If it changes your life, let it.  Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.

Lots of foamy bubbles usually is an indication of protien buildup in the tank. Kinda like what happens with SW when it washes onshore.

A few waterchanges should lower the pollutant level and clear this right up.

hhmm...there are a whole lotta baby snails in there right now, but I do water changes about every other day and the bubbles never go away...maybe I'll switch to every day and see what happens.  Thanks.  :)
