Hey guys first time messing around with silconing glass and was wondering the who has done a 75g sump and have siliconed glass baffles and what dimensions baffles you had cut. I measured yesterday and just want to make sure I have the right width. Thanks guys!!

Anyone?? I measured this morning and my closest measurement is 17 3/8 wide, is that close? Using the 1/4 rule would I get my glass cut at 17 1/8?

When I did mine I measured the width from corner to corner then minus the thickness of the glass and cut 1/4 smaller so you have 1/8 on each side for silicone.

I don't remember the exact dimensions of my baffles, but this was how I figured out the length. Make sure you measure the INSIDE of the tank ;)
