Acrylic or glass baffles on a 60 g sump?

LOL! Let's just say over 50.

Right on! Obviously I'm up there too

Just having a little fun. I agree it works. Can it be more efficient with some baffles controlling the flow? Probably. Are the baffles necessary? Most cases, no, and your design proves that. The burning question is “hotshot” ??? LOL My dad called me that back in the ‘60’s How old are you?

Hey Egon:

Maybe he has you confused with looking like Charlie Sheen, who portrays the main character in the movie "Hot Shot" and "Hot Shot - part Deu".

By the way how old were you back in the 60's? I was 5 in 1960, so you must be at least really old!:j/k:

If you do use glass, be sure not to use what most glass shops call "Regular Strength" glass as it's really thin and can break somewhat easily. I did this and one piece broke on me (the largest piece of course) and I replaced it with a thicker piece of glass. The cost difference isn't that much and well worth the few extra dollars.
