DIY Bubble trap (stand alone)

I've been trying to reduce the bubbles coming from my skimmers overflow, I should of made a bubble trap baffle within my sump but unfortunately this was not the case.

So for a quick solution I took two drinking bottles, cut the ends off both, added a hole at the top in one of them to fit snugly over my skimmers overflow pipe, I also added tiny holes to allow air to escape.

Thankfully it works a treat (in the same way a baffle bubble trap works)

I thought someone may find the solution helpful one day
