I constructed a sump/fuge out of a rubbermaid tub.. i used strong plexiglass from h/d for baffles...
i originally used silicone from the lfs and this did not work out at all... however i found some really strong silicone that is much stronger and i feel will work... i will be testing it today and will let you all know... :joy:
in addition... I sanded down the sides where the baffles would be... I'm thinking half of the problem is the rubbermaid tubs are not rough enough for the silicone to adhere.
Lastly, I did have to make a template as bill suggested... this took a bit of time because the walls on the tub i got are not straight up they increase as the rise and also there is a radius at the bottom (not 90 degree angles) however once i made my temp.. we were good to go for all the baffles.
I hope this helps.. lemme know if you have anymore questions... and like I said, I will be testing today and let you know how it went.
