Hi everyone,
I have a glass 75g tank that is going to be my sump for my 150g display. my problem is where can i find 3/8 plexi to make the compartment baffles out of, or do i need to use glass and if so is there someone in st charle, st. louis area that i can buy these products from or even better, can they cut & silicone the compartments in if i mark where i want them, to accomidate skimmer, fuge, resevoir etc. also is 3/8 width what i need?
i have a cpr overflow box rated at 1600gph & using iwaki 70 return pump. I have the outer orbit 3x250 hqi w/t5's light as well. i havent decided on a skimmer for this yet, but i am trying for sps dominated with heavy fish load. any suggestions on this as well would be welcomed. if this was your set up what would you do?
thanks for any help.
 
There is a glass company in wentsville on the north outer 70 who will cut the glass for you. If you use acrylic, you can purchase 1/4" pieces from the big-blue-box hardware store, and they will cut it for free.
