    I am going to order glass baffles tomorrow for my 75 Gallon fuge/sump. I have decided to go with a height of 10" (and moving up to 12"height with second piece of glass in the bubble trap baffle)...My question is, if I am going from 1st step being Intake second to Mangrove mostly fuge and last to return section where the bulkhead for th pump is...does the second set of baffles need to be lower than the first set....for instance if I go 10" 12" (with 2inch gap) 10" bubble trap baffle should the second bubble trap be 8" 10" 8"???:confused::confused::confused:
