Attaching baffles to sump

That looks like it would work pretty well. I might have to try that next time I build a sump.

The concept is brilliant...but I wonder how it holds up over time.

Even if the adhesive began to give out, it would be simple and cheap to re-apply.

 

But a PITA to do over and over again...

I'm going to be setting up my first sump soon. I just bought the tank yesterday and I have a couple questions. First, does this look like a good idea for a sump? Are there any additions you would make to this plan? So far my design is:

Hey Kylie,
Start a build thread and document your progress. You can see my sump build here:

Also, here's some design docs from it here:

In that thread, I posted my design and from that, got the feedback that I needed to improve the design and come up with my final design. I hope this helps. My goals for a sump were to have a refugium area and a macro algae for a tumbling ball of chaeto. I had planned to do an external skimmer at that time.
