Another update.
Yesterday the glass pieces I order were ready for me to pickup. So I picked them on my way to work. After work I used a red sharppie and mark line on the out side of the tank where I was going to put the baffles in at. Then I put a small bead of silicone on each line one baffle at a time. I slowly put each baffle in and used my finger to smooth the silicone. I finished the sump around 6am. Had this in the morning.
Then this morning I replaced the side pain of glass I broke when taking off the trimming. After about 4 hours of letting the side panel silicone cure I painted the back and bottom pains. This weekend I'm going to do a fill test on the sump to make sure their r no leaks. Cus I basically re-siliconed the whole sump.

I mocked up my plumbing today and tried out the new pump.
