I recently changed my tank from fake plants to live plants and I did a 50 % water change after. I just noticed white bubbles on the surface but there are not that many. Should i do another water change?

Pictures?
If there are any labyrinth fish, it could be a bubble nest.

Nope not any. Also it looks cloudy at the top. Should I do a water change?
Will you please upload a picture of the tank?

It looks sort of like bio film to me.
I say do a 30% water change. Try to remove all of the bubbles using a clean paper towel.

It is caused by the water mixing with the other water. (Just like when you pour a glass of water)

Huge for me as these never ever showedIt could be disturbance, from the filter. No biggie.
'No biggie' is @Fishmanic 's quote
They show and don't show in my tank every day or every other day. It will not hurt your tank or your fish.

I never had them with plastic plants in the tank but im guessing that the live plants have more proteins so when the decompose the bubble wont pop because they are held together with proteins. The bubbles are gone now.
