    if you are using the normal black color surface skimmer, don't know how you call it
    There shuld be knop that you can turn to control how many % the water coming from the top. I'm just guessing here.

    If i'm not mistaken it should be the other way around.
    Where the bottom takes in more water so the top suction is not too powerful sucking in air from atmosphere.

    You should adjust the skimmer such that the top sucks in just nice on the surface, when you see that water around it is moving towards the skimmer....

    As for air in your diffusor, it might be leftover CO2 from the last photoperiod when your CO2 was switched on. On the other hand, your CO2 cylinder / solenoid (if you're using one) might be leaking...
