The skimmer section is always filled up to the baffles, yes. You can see the mark of blue tape. The 'fuge section and return section are only divided by a short baffle. I fill the water above that line, and hold macroalgae in the 'fuge with a piece of eggcrate. By doing that, I combine the water volume of both compartments into one. Otherwise, if you evaporate a lot of water, you might end up running your return pump dry, since that's the section that'll see the losses to evaporation.
