Here's what the Fluval Edge filter looks like
The left tube is the intake, and the water cascades back out in front the of filter media.
The small `knob` above the tube on the left is a handle to control the flow, move it to the right to slow the flow down, which I have done but I'm concerned it'll be too slow
As for the bubbles, it must be just a side-effect of the closed lid style of the Fluval.
This filter looks exactly like my AquaClear 20. I'm wondering if its the same product?

I also have a Fluval Edge which is doing the same thing (bubbles being produced)
It would appear there isn't much you can do about it, with high or low with the flow setting it still produces bubbles, which isn't a problem in my opinion, my friend has the same tank and his fish love with play in the flow and with the bubbles... (Mine is cycling at the moment so who know's if they will like it)
But as other people suggested I would also just put some plant or ornament in the way to try and hide it a little if that is what you are trying to do.

Day 6: pH = 7.6 / pH High = 8.3 / Ammonia: 4ppm
No movement. Starting to wonder
Keep waiting
I'm on day 9 and Ammonia has only just started to drop 
Day 8: pH = 7.6 / pH High = 8.2 / Ammonia: 2ppm / Nitrite: 5ppm / Nitrate: 40ppm << Hard to tell exactly what ppm this was.
We have movement!
So when the Ammonia hits 1ppm or less should I re-dose up to 5ppm or wait until all the ammonia is processed before I re-dose?

I would re-dose when your ammonia level gets to 0.25-0ppm, When you next test in 24hrs there will be a good chance it will have been processed.Day 8: pH = 7.6 / pH High = 8.2 / Ammonia: 2ppm / Nitrite: 5ppm / Nitrate: 40ppm << Hard to tell exactly what ppm this was.
