I know this is going to sound kinda dumb to most of you guys so im sorry in advance lol. I have a wavemaker on my aquarium and when it goes down on that side it goes to minimal if not any water flowing into it. But when the wave goes up it creates a ton of bubbles which go down and get sucked up by my overflow U tube. Needless to say in about 2 days my U tube ends up completely blocked of with air and I have to get back there and syphon it out and it is getting really old. So ive done some looking around and one person says put a smaller U tube on there and another says to put a pump to the top of the U tube. What would you guys do?

Aqualift pump, tied to the top of the J-tube. This will continuously take water, and air bubbles, from the top of the tube.

Which reminds me, want a dog?

If you don't get Ray's, I believe I bought mine for $14.99 at one of the LFS's.
