    I had mine for 7 years, it was a manufactured one, not a custom. It had not visible problems, but I needed a bigger one when I upgraded my tank. When I went to move my old sump out of the way, it cracked. The acrylic had become less flexible. I think if I had not had to move it, it would have lasted a lot longer.
