I am looking to build an acrylic sump for a 230g 72x29x25 peninsula style display. I am trying to avoid using 1/2" sheets due to price. Has anyone built or know of examples of sumps that were built separately but overflow into each other to make one large sump? I do not need a refugium, just a simple sump with one section for skimmers and next section for return and scrubber. One issue I can think of is keeping the overflow from one sump to the other silent, or close to silent. The overall dimensions of the sump will be around 48x24x16..so each sump will be around 24x24x16. I am hoping I can do this with 1/4" sheets using cross braces or euro braces.
