    I am considering a zero edge puget sound biotope. I have heared that there is alot of problems with condensation because the glass is to thin. I know that this woun't be a problem with a zero edge but what about the sump will the condensation happen with an acrylic sump?

    condensation only occurs when the outside temp is higher than the temp of the water in the tank - those with chiller units on tanks in rooms that have no AC during a heat water
    do get a lot of condensation

    if your room is well ventilated and a similar temp to the tank or lower, it should not be a problem IME
