hi everyone

i have a squarish DIY sump (no baffles yet) measuring 16" X 14" X 10"
im using a reef octopus classic 110SSS so i need my water level to be at around 7.5".
i dont want a refuge, id rather save this space for equipment and reactors down the road.
what do you recommend for baffle arrangement? i've never built a sump before so i thought i should check here


this is a general idea that i have

Why not ? Just make the divider between the "equipment" and the return whatever height you need foe you skimmer to keep water levels stable.

Really what you have laid out is truly all you need.
