Would suggest larger bulkheads, 2" for suctions and 1" for returns. Also personally would put the CL returns in the base and the suctions on the back. A large advantage with CL is the ability to push water upwards in the tank, IMO not doing so would question why it's there in the first place. You're also wasting your time with a 3/4" base, this is the most supported part of the tank and if anything can be thinner than the front and back. My tank is 12mm on the sides and 10mm on the bottom. You're just adding weight and cost.
