After looking through some of these DIY Build threads I feel a bit in adequate but....
Hope you guys can help me out a bit. Just got into SW a couple months ago. Didn't listen to the LFS and therefore did not have my 45 drilled but went with a canister. Now I regret it big time. So, since I am on a tight budget and don't want to tear down my tank to drill it, I am considering DIY overflow and sump.
Questions:
1. Am I being over paranoid worrying about loosing my siphon and flooding?
2. Would love some good tips on joining acrylic as well as some good ideas on where to purchase raw materials.
3. Would love to see some good plans on projects any of you have done in the past that worked out well.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.
