i only have one set of bubble baffles and mine works fine. However, what you did obviously defeats the purpose of that second baffle :) hmm wait.. both baffles might need redoing...

cut one more piec and put it on the right side of the one that is currently furthest to the right in the picture.

what is the middle section for? if you are doing a refugium and having a DSB, you will need to change the setup around

the end part ( right ) is for freshwater for A.T.O. so that has to stay. mebe i should just add 2 more baffles.... one to the left of each set i have now ?

I would just add one more under after the first 2 on left, so it would be 3rd baffle.
It would have been nice to see baffle b4 return be an under, so you don't have to worry about running dry, but ATO should take care of that.
