Me, I'd get rid of the filter material and just use socks as easier to maintain, probably don't need the bio-ball if have LR. Idea of baffles is to keep away micro-bubbles from your return pump so they don't go back into the display, can you have your skimmer discharge back to the left side where the filter media is now?
