Where to get cheap/free glass for aquarium sump baffles
« on: May 31, 2016, 10:12:57 AM »
I'm building out a 40 gal sump for my 150...and I need a few pieces of glass to make baffles.

Does anyone have any scrap glass laying around or know the best places to find? probably only need 1/4" thick nothing crazy since it is just a baffle divider inside the sump.

thanks!

I've gotten a few pieces from the local glass shop, I've also used panes from free leaking tanks to use.

I'm right down the road from you (13mile & Main St in Royal Oak) I am pretty sure I have some pieces of glass from an old 55g here somewhere still. If you want them let me know and I'll see if I can find them and you can have them.
