So I've run sumps for saltwater tanks in the past, but am for the first time putting together a sump system for freshwater. I've read through a number of threads, and one of the common themes I see is that you don't want baffles in a freshwater sump.
Right now I've got a baffled sump, and I'm running biomedia and heaters in the first chamber and I'm looking to add elodea or anacharis in the middle chamber. Using the baffles to keep anacharis from reaching the DT.
Can someone explain to me why you don't want baffles in a freshwater sump, and if you don't run baffles how do you keep floating plants from reaching the DT.
TIA
