DIY Sump Tank Need Help (Phase 1)

[nature beauty]

To all the kind hearted Bro out there,

Need some advice before i start my DIY project on the sump tank. As my plan is to build a biotope for my Mac final home i realised that i had a 2 ft tank unused with a power head and i don't have a filiter for the time been. Thinking of buying a filter with a more limited cap for the medi,a I was thinking why not i make 1!

With that i current looking for the following:
1. acrylic (where can i buy a few pcs that offer to cut for me when i give the diamension)
2.Silicon (I know need those fish tank friendly 1 where can i get those?

Will post my step to step DIY once I start my project^^

So thanks to all bro in advance for all the help given!

You can try dama enterprise in ubi for your acrylic. Custom size thickness and color up to you.

As for silicone, you can find it in any hardware shops. Most of them which are aquarium safe will say so.

Hope to see your sump up soon! I'm considering doing one as well.

Silicone and acrylic don't mix well. Find something else like Weldon or something similar for acrylic use. Silicone should be used on glass.
