I'm sorry I didn't keep responding to your text's, I got busy with the swap and being with my family and honestly forgot that I never responded to your most recent text.

I am not sure how the chip occurred as it wasn't there when I took pictures of it that morning to send to you, my guess is in transit somewhere. Anyways in regards to the chip, the less than 1/2 material that is missing from the joint that is at the top of the sump, so at least 6" from the water level/where external forces pressing outwards would be. It shouldn't cause any issues. As for the thin material that is the way I got it and ran it for over a year with no issues, and 1/4" acrylic is practically industry standard.

That all being said if you aren't happy with it I can get you your frags back. We all take risks in this hobby and trading is one of them. You take a risk that the equipment is not exactly what you wanted, or in this case gets superficially damaged in transit. I take the risk that the frags you give me could be infested with parasites, not take to my tank and die, not be the same pieces you told me the latest I was getting.

Regardless if you want your stuff back you can pick them up and I'll take the sump back.
