Figure I could do a bubble trap about the size of a 2 litre pop bottle for skimmer and pull all the baffles or just keep the last "over" baffle. Either way would be gaining room in my skimmer/return section. Might be loosing some gas exchange but another plus for running a Herbie.

My sump just have a 3 baffle bubble trap before the return and that's all. Even bubble traps wouldn't be needed with a good skimmer that doesn't throw too much micros. I do prefer atleast one baffle/bubble trap in the sump so that the ATO can more quickly understand the change in water level.
