Yeah the baffles in a rubbermaid container seem like more trouble than anything. I think I may rethink my sump. I actually have a few empty 33G tanks that would work, I just did not want to have to try drilling them. Might save me some trouble in the end though and would look nicer!
I will take pics of my GSP as soon as I can...I have no camera now. I can try with my camera phone though. Hes been a very healthy and tough GSP...Gone through ich twice and now even if other fish get ich, he NEVER does! He was also bit really badly on his belly a few months ago and it healed amazingly. I am very impressed with how tough their skin really is. I would guess its because it can stretch so well. I have never seen his puff up yet and Ive had him three years. My porcupine seems to puff up a few times a week for no apparent reason besides maybe wanting attention because he does it when Im watching the tank.

Some Porcs have been known to puff up for practice/attention. Does your's spit at you?
Sweet, can't wait for the pics. Pics for both please! Pm SeaHorse_Fanatic, I think he has some glass drill bits, and will drill the tanks for a minor fee. Do you have your GSP in marine sg now?

My porc spits with ridiculously good aim...He has spat right into my mouth twice now. My GSP is in marine. He has been for about a year now and hes actually gotten brighter and more active. He seems to be doing very well in full marine. I got him in frashwater of course, even though he was already a bit big to still be in freshwater

Yeah! As soon as I have the new tank up your welcome to come by. I will let you know. How many puffers do you have? You mentioned the Celyons...any others? Where did you get yours? I have not seen very many Ceylons around Vancouver before.

Sweet!
Only got 2 ceylons atm. In the future, will be getting a porc and a C. schoepfii (spiney burrfish). We actually got the from her lab proffessor at SFU. They were going to be used for some experiments I think. I really regret not saving more of them. The rest of them died cuz no one was taking care of them. There were about 10 total.

Thats cool that you saved the Celyons!
Anyways, back to plumbing... How hard is it to drill glass tanks? I think I might want to just take advantage of the spare tanks I have and use them as sump/refugium. I have seen people "drill" them using a dremmel (sp.), has anyone here done this? I would be drilling relatively thin glass (1/4" I think) which actually makes me more nervous. Seems like drilling thicker glass would be easier.
