Anyone on here build their own AIO tank? I got some of those new Petco rimless tanks and wanted to try to make an AIO out of them but don't even know where to begin
 
Reefdudes and Aqua Splendor on YT both did their own AIO acrylic mods

The only thing is that they did theirs by having them laser cut. I don't have access to a laser or know anyone who does

I tried to go down the score and snap approach and eventually went with the foam wall idea. After about 6 months of detritus buildup in chambers I scrapped the tank and drilled for a sump. I would look at having a shop laser cut or buying a fiji.
