Sump help please, I may have messed up :(

So I'm making a 55g 3 chamber sump. The left will be intake and skimmer, middle the fuge and right the return.

I made the left side 10 1/4", raised panel 1 1/2" ^ and 10 1/4", 10 1/4". Then this is where I think I goofed this next set starts with the outflow from the fuge so I put teeth on it to grab anything loose. I cut the glass at 9" and the teeth are 1 1/4" , the next raised panel is the same as the other and the last is 8" the fuge outflow panel is the one worrying me. I don't think it's tall enough. Am I correct?

So your bubble trap panels go 9" than a taller section than 8" into your return? If so than your gtg.

But on the other side of the fuge it's higher? So that's ok?. Lol, don't mind me Heath been up all night and all day today trying to have it all ready by tomorrow night.

Yes. Your fuge is gonna be the height of the tallest piece. So you actually want the first one in the bubble trap taller than the third.

Seems right. Idk if I'm seeing what you think your problem is though. Lol. Get out a small pump and put some water in there pump it from return back to skimmer side and watch the flow.

Duh, you're right. Lol. I think I'm getting loopy, need a nap! Sorry for the brain fart, thank you!

I figure most things out on my tank by asking on here. Seems like after I ask I see what I'm trying to figure out before anyone answers!

Haha, yeah I know what you mean. I knew what I was doing when I planned it out But lost plans and sleep sometimes gets the best of me, even when I know better- or should know better

All that's left on the sump then is the skimmer shelf. Yay!
