Hello!
I recently ordered a Fiji-Cube sump that arrived with a crack in the middle of the skimmer section and also a broken piece of the baffle between the refugium and return chambers (see pictures). When I contacted them, I was informed they were out of stock and that the item was being discontinued on their site. They issued a refund, however I am seeing if I’m able to salvage the tank to use in my new setup. I’ve read several forums suggesting Weld-on for the damages. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Scored a fixer, it might look damaged but it can be repaired and still function.

If you have a plastic supply store you might get some good advice about how to do the job and also get the materials to patch it up?
