New Sump

Getting my sump ready for my first tank (120 gallon) and since I am pretty cheap, I took a page out of Wit's book and bought a 50 gallon tool box at Lowes. I also got a smokin deal on some 1/4" acrylic to make the baffles and the refugium.

Couple of questions prior to starting to make the beast.

1. I am looking for something to secure the baffles to the box. I have read on the boards that silicon does not stick well to plastic anyone have any alternatives? Thought I read some folks using superglue to attach corals. Is it safe to use it in the tank..maybe I can use it....

2. I was told to use some sponge in the sump to reduce the bubbles. Do I need to do that if I use the bubble trap baffles?

Thanks,
Stil
