I have 5 gallon buckets with 5 gallon lids, water is a little below the basket and using 15lpm airpump.
Is this normal? Its soaking everything from a slow drip off the lip of the lid.

Lower the water level. It should be splashing up on the sides of the cup, but not to the top.

I'm using two airstones per bucket one at the bottom and one 1-2" below the net.
I'll try using the 2nd one deeper into the bucket and turning the level of air down.
My water level is 2-3" below the net pot, guess ill lower it more.

You can regulate how much water is splashing the netpot either by lowering the water level, reducing the bubble action, or a combination of the two.
