That tank you pictured needs a baffle. There should be baffles at the inlet and outlet of the tank.
Yes, I'd noticed the baffle thing when searching for that photo online. Mine does NOT have a baffle. It's just a pipe hanging out of the side of the top of the tank. But, in this case, the pipe is several inches above the effluent, so I would assume the baffle would not be impacting this issue.

I really don't want to crawl all of the way under the house to the pipes, but I may have to.
