Bubbles in My Tank After Assembly

Why Did Bubbles Appear in My Tank?

When bubbles appear in your tank, you might wonder what is happening. Are they bubbles? Are they gel? The answer is that they're harmless bubbles that should disappear with time. It's a very natural process.

These bubbles will not harm your frogs.

To speed up the bubble popping time, just use your hand or a straw to pop the bubbles and your tank will return to normal. A very good thing about the bubbles is that they mean your frogs are getting more than the oxygen they need which is healthy. Bubbles usually happen after a water change. 

Bubbles on your plant mean it's going through healthy photosynthesis and won't be negatively affected at all.
