mastertde Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 I am gonna attempt to make my own sump and was wondering where do you guys get your acrylic cut at. I was thinking of buying a used aquarium from craigslist and then having the baffles cut somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Use a fine tooth skill saw blade to cut acrylic. Or go to tap plastics to get pieces cut to size. (Or you may be able to find enough in their scrap bin) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wanareef Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 If you go glass, don't forget to relieve the bottom of the baffle, on either corner where it meets the side of the tank - the silicone will keep it from touching the bottom You'll need a plastic cutting table saw blade and then route it smooth for a bubble free joint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
