·Hi everyone,
Right now I'm running an old 10g for a sump on my 40g. Basically it's just a refugium with shrimp, a few plants, and some pot scrubbies. The mechanical filtration is all done by a marine land 200 and a filter sock. So to cut to the chase, I want to build an acrylic 20g sump with drip plate over scrubbies and some filter foam with a refugium in the middle. The most important thing is..will the acrylic be strong enough and would I need to put a cross support in the middle? The sump will be built to the dimensions of a 20g long. Also any other thoughts that I forgot to mention or things I should be concerned or suggestions. Thanks in advance
