I had to reconfigure my sump which is a 30 gal AGA glass tank and acrylic baffles. Take a razor blade and run it flat on the tank, down the seams. You may have to wiggle/work the baffles to get it out but it will come out eventually. Don't get too aggressive, you can break the sump if its glass.

Yes a NEW razor blade. It will be hard to get the blade in initially. Once you do it will slide easily.
Clean off old silicone with a razor blade and 100% alcohol mixed with water. HTH, Aquarium Obsessed |
