This will be my 1st non glass sump.

In that sump, it has the typical glass panel baffles that are glided at different heights that require the water to flow over or under. In the new sump I had built, the chamber adjacent to the return pumps has two upper and two lower baffles (pic attached).

My question is would I close off the lower or the upper baffles or have one of each like in the photo? Im assuming I would close off the two lower to require the water to rise higher that the return pumps, but im not sure if this is right or just a choice. I’d rather get it right before I fill it with water and have to crawl under the cabinet to change it out.
