    Given the acrylic, a blowtorch, silicon and a picture or two, how hard is it to make my own sump?
    It would fall apart after you pour the water in. Silicon cannot bond acrylic together to use as a sump.
    Look at all those live rocks on the beach at Florida's state park!

    No, but I know you have a Calfo and therefore you have an opinion.

    Gary,

    I have a Calfo shelf in my Oceanic 135 and like it alot. Noise was an issue at first, but it is quiet now after a little tweaking. I have two 1 inch bulkheads and the shelf itself is done with two 4" x 71" pieces of 1/4" glass.

    HTH.
