Hey guys I need some help with building a future sump and getting rid of my wet dry. I've attached a picture of a rough draft. I just need to know the dimensions of the baffles (width and height) and if the lengths of each section will be okay. I do know to keep the baffles 1 - 1 1/2 inches apart and the middle one 1 - 1 1/2 inches off the bottom. From what I understand, the height of the baffles is what the water level for each section is going to be right? The skimmer's footprint is 10"x9" and I don't think I really want to keep a SB or any chaeto in there for the time being. Also do I need a light above my fuge for the live rock rubble? I believe the overflow is rated at 300 gph. The return pump is a catalina 1800 (635gph) with a gate valve attached to regulate flow. Well I think that's it. Thanks for any help!
