click on the updated sump link and check out the middle pic

 

Look in my sump thread. There is a link to a acrylic overflow box that does not use media. Forget the name, but it is not me.

 

1/8'' glass would be fine for my baffles right?

 

Seems too thin to me. Not like it has to hold a lot... My sump came made with 1/8. I took it out and put in 3/16 just caused it seemed if I just nicked it it would break.

 

Ok, couple +1's to Powerman here and i'll go with his suggestion. No offense Powerman, always good to have 2nd and 3rd opinions imo.

 

Absolutely. I'm not the end all be all. All I have is an opinion. You should seek many and then decide what is best for you.

 

BTW, i looked through your sump build thread yesterday, very cool... Wish i had room/money to do that!

 

Ok so finally got my glass!


Question, how the heck do you get down between the panes to silicone the baffles? only thing i can think of so far is attaching a straw to the nozzle. Ideas???


I did take care of the middle piece, here's my first ever attempt at a silicone job.
