Hey guys I just finished my sump with new baffles and lnstalled it was all going great till I got home today and the second baffle has somehow cracked all the way down I'm assuming due to pressure from the water now it isn't causing much problems as my water flow is fine I'm just wondering is theee any way to fix it with out taking the whole sump out ??

Get a glass strip same measure of the crack and silicone it on... there's an underwater silicone which is very strong and will seal underwater as well (Gold label)

Or if you want to be safer, get a piece of glass just a few mm smaller than the cracked baffle and glue that on, it should hold better than a strip.
