Please critique my sump design before I have the builder start

This sump is going under a 210g tank flowing 2000-2200 gph thru the sump. The short length is due to stand restrictions. Let me know what you think please!

with that flow I would put the baffles about 1.5 in apart. I dont know. Just my two cents

Also if you can have him make the switch and probe holders adjustable. Unless you know exactly what skimmer you are using and NEVER plan on getting another one. Some skimmers require different depths of water.

You do realize that your drawing says the tank will be 26" wide (left to right), but your mockup only has a total of 22".

I think I'm stuck with an external skimmer of one type or another as long as I have this stand. Current sump has almost no bafffles because previous owner took them out to fit a skimmer in it.
