Protip:embark with mountains in the area, stone rarely has aquifers.
Alternate Protip: embark with magma in the area and tunnel through the surrounding ring of obsidian to get beneath the aquifer.

honestly, I've found aquifers to be pretty awesome, once you got the procedure for busting a hole through them down. Unlimited source and disposal of water? Yes please. Perfect for drowning traps, power needs, what have you.

I loved my hallway that led enemy's into a drowning chamber linked up with pressure plates. It even drained too for all of their goodies. (worked with caravans too!)
