I've had the same experience. Nylon is the culprit. I've heard before
that big bubbles produce more a agitation. This is where you need more
air than conventional home fish tank air pump. I've looked around for
such pumps and found some hydroponic stores sell large pumps, and then
there are places that sell pumps for outdoor fish ponds and even home
sewage treatment. There are high volume air pumps that are not too
expensive. These cheaper high volume pumps are a bit louder and shorter
life span, but that is unimportant for etching.
