Is the 17” internal dimensions? A standard all glass 5.5 gallon is 16x8x10 and would fit. Making baffles will be pretty tight in there considering size, plus the glass is pretty thin so you need to be careful. A premade icecap 15 sump would fit nicely if your budget allows. How are you handling the drain? Overflow box or drilling?
