I think I'm going to keep my large frag system, but I need to make some modifications to it before I stock it up again.
First off, I need to build a cover for my sump. My sump is a 150g rubber maid tub. It's located at the far end of the tank(s), and sits up against the wall. Splashing in the sump has started to cause the drywall paper to pull away (despite several coats of paint, and using green board).
Covering the sump should help a bit with the heat issue (or lack of heat) that I'm having a problem with right now.
Can I cut the cheap cast plexiglass at HD/lowes with a rotary tool such as a zip saw or router without cracking it?
My plan is to make a 2 or 3 piece cover for the sump. Doesn't have to be super pretty, but it needs to keep the splashing down, and the heat in.
