Default Fulval 405 Question

I have a 150 gallon tank with 2 Fulval 405's. One of the filters seems to be pushing air bubbles from the return hose every minute or so. Also, just before the bubbles are expelled I hear a gurgling sound in the canister. Any ideas on how to retify this issue. Thanks

Unplug, open and reset the seals as air is getting into it.

Is there an airstone near the intake?
