I’ve bled any air from system but still get these bubbles from returns at anything below 2000 rpms. Has been this way since build 4 years ago. Disappointed because rest of water is crystal clear. Tried posting the video but wouldn't allow me.

For whatever reason, it is really hard to see the bubbles in the picture you posted. SWG will introduce bubbles when it is running, this is normal.
 
I agree with PoolStored it’s probably the SWG that’s creating the bubbles you’re describing. My pool is less than a year old and I noticed no bubbles during initial startup while plaster was curing. Bubbles started appearing after the SWG was turned on. You can try turning it off and run pump on high speed for 10 minutes before reducing the speed to 1750 and checking for bubbles.
