I think that it involved a heat gun (?) device, looks like a hair dryer, and using PVC to act as a guide in bending the plastic. I've read it can get pretty tricky, so have plenty of scrap to practice! Also, as you may have read, the taller the tank, the thicker the plastic. But Weld-On products are pretty good for acrylic project, so thickness may not be an issue. It may just have a bit of a bowing issue if not thick enough. I didn't have to bend pieces on the sump I made for my tank. Good luck.
