I have never worked with acrylic but I am sure that you need a special glue called Weld On. I think it softens the surfaces so they bond together when they re-solidify.
so im going to make a fuge for the 14. this is what im going to try to reproduce, but with a twist for possible copywrite resons.

i think it will be a good project. ive never used acrylic or the glue for it, any hints? what glue would you recomend?

ive heared weld on #4 is the thing to use, but i was wondering if there are any easier to find alternatives.

Whatever you do dont make it see through because then your light shines into your tank if you run a reverse light cycle with the HOB fuge. I covered mine in my daughters black construction paper...lol
You don't have to worry about copyrights or pattens unless you are making something to sell. So just copy it right to spec...lol

if i do it well i wouldnt mind making a buck. with my biocube, it will go on the back and the back is painted black from the factory. i will have it set so theat my MH will shine into it, or it will be on 24/7 and made from black acrylic.
it will be about 4" in depth, 15 " wide, and 14" tall roughly.

How come an extra overflow in the fuge?

this is going to be a tank that hange off the back of my 14 gallon biocube, the big black thing on the left is a tube that goes into the 14 with a pump on it to push water into the fuge, the water then exits via the overflow back into the 14. im planning on adding at least 1.5 gallons to the system this way.
