Are you sure that baffle system is the best way to remove microbubbles? I'd think a simple over under over baffle would be more effective... However you'd have to add a couple holes in the top of the under baffle for air to escape.

I'm probably missing something but wouldn't the baffles cause the microbubbles to join together and you'd end up with bigger bubbles that wouldn't collect waste??

not sure

After seeing the way the bubbles react in my beckett when it goes from the box into the first riser and then into the second riser, I'm not very convinced that the baffles will create so much turbulence to be detrimental. I should also note that I rounded all the sharp corners with a 1/4" quarter circle router bit which may be the reason the bubbles flow around the corners so well. When i get some time this spring, i might look into build one to experiment on. Another option is to simply remove all the baffles and work with a square skimmer body instead of a circular.
