I took an old 50 gallon aquarium and cut glass for baffles. It is under my 150 gallon tank. I have made several of this type. I use 1/4 inch glass and the baffles are usually about 17 inches tall and spaced 1.5 inches apart. This one is for my 55 gallon tank, it is built from a 20 gallon tank.

Wow Angelo, could not have done a better job at explaining the project. My 50 gallon has a 12x12x12 return area. Before I built the auto top off, I added 2 gallons a day. I keep the water level pretty high as my system will allow 20 gallons to flood the refigium during a power failure.

just make sure your return section is as big as possible.....
i didnt think about that when i made mine and i have to add topoff every day
Excellent Advice!
I made something similar out of a 10g for my 60g
