Sump Build
I'm building a 30g sump for a 75g tank. I know how I want the different areas of the sump layed out I just don't know how tall I should make the first baffle. Sump is 30" long and 18" tall. I've got my first baffle planned at 14" tall and then dropping the subsequent baffles by 1". Any advice is appreciated.

there are many threads on here about sumps you would need to figure out your layout first as to where drain,return lines skimmer etc are going to be placed then adjust your baffles accordingly.

I don't think willy correctly read the post..croc knows where he wants to put them, just not how tall.
Anyways, I don't see a problem with dropping them an inch each time
