So I’m gonna make a ten gallon tank into an AIO system. I’m gonna do a couple things different just to try and improve the efficiency of the tank, ergo the return nozzle will be on the opposite side of the tank near the sandbed to blow as much detritus as possible to the other end, and a small piece of glass will be near the bottom to channel the flow upward so any detritus will be sucked into the baffle. I’d just like some opinions, feedback, and constructive criticism on the blueprints :)
 
Looks interesting. My only question is whether the flow being so low would kick up sand. I'd likely go for a heavier sand.
