Probably posting to much here but have gotten good advice here before. Bought some stuff to do a sump and going to be using a 20 long, I grabbed a return pump a filter sock holder and an overflow. Wandering both advice on building the sump such as design, and where to get supplies, not sure rather going to use acrylic or glass for baffles but want to start building it this week possibly.

I just built a 20g long sump using the Marine Biosystems pro sump kit. Check them out, best kit I've come across.

acrylic is a good way to go. I bought the kit I used for my DIY sump from this site, give it a look:


Here are some photos from my build:
