Alright, I'm looking to either buy a sump, or create a one out of a standard 40 gallon breeder. I need some major help, as I'm a complete newbie at this...a couple of questions...
1. Does it matter how tall the baffles are? I know they need to be 1in apart, and the center one 1 inch from the bottom, as seen off melevs design. I'm wanting to follow this model:

2. Does the first baffle have to have "teeth" Or can it get away without them?
3. How far apart do the baffles need to be in order for the flow to be correct?
I'm doing some research, and if anyone has a layout with measurements of their 40 gallon sump, I'd GREATLY appreciate it. Thanks!
