Here is a pic I found and would like to see more. How can these containers be divided to eliminate micro bubbles?

Its kinda hard to see in this pic but I am using a 100gal rubbermaid stock tank. To reduce microbubbles, I configured a series of buckets, each smaller then the next and put them inside one another, creating a baffle system. To further aid with bubbles and detritus, I use a 14" 100micron filter sock.

Omg serpentman... Is there a tank hidden somewhere in that pic perhaps??

I would say the tank is probably on the other side of the wall, or in another room, upstairs perhaps, ...

Nice setup, I like that it seems to be a work area and not just wasted space.
