howdy all,
im setting up a 15h for my refugium. i was wondering how far apart should my baffles be? also should i use 2 sets of three baffles? inlet. 3 baffles. refuge. 3 baffles. return. kind of a deal?
 
On the inlet I have a unique design. It has 1 panel but is split about 2-3" in the middle horizontally. This allows the water in and the bubble form at the top but the flow through to the main chamber is below the water line. For the return, I have 3, low, high, low. I also use fiber floss at the top, between them to remove any detritus and micro bubbles.
 
if you making a bubble trap place the baffles about 1" apart with the middle baffle about 1.5" of the bottom of the sump.
