need help on this...I have a 90g tank and 29g that I will be using for a sump. Trying to figure out how tall to make the baffles. I have a AquaC EV 180w/mag7 and a mag9 for the return. 1-1/4 line feeds the sump, 3/4 line return to tank. The bottom edge of gate valve on the skimmer is 7-8" from bottom, should I raise the skimmer up? The directions for the skimmer are a little confusing at one point it says "If the sump level is above the output of the gate valve the skimmer will perform inconsistantly" and also says "The skimmers best performance is usually obtained when the water is level eqaul to the top of the dark gray box" in that case it would be about 2" above the gate valve. So basically my question is how tall should my baffles be and do I need to raise the skimmer up so its more than 7-8"?
