We're just reffering to the waste of space in the display tank.As
for acrylic,silicon doesn't bond well to plastics.Its best to use a
glue designed for acrylic.After it has cured,run a bead of silicon
over that.
If you plan on getting a 5' tank that has a large footprint (60" x
24"),it would give you alot more room for the in-tank-sump(12" x
24").With proper baffle design,a functional skimmer section/return
section could be made.One advantage to this deign is a small return
pump could be used as head pressure would be only 1'.Just
remember,you dont want a high volume of water flowing through your
sump.Current/water flow should be in the display,not the sump.A
closed loop is the best way to achieve this and its inputs/outputs
can easily be drilled if you use acrylic for your partition.
