Looks like you have a great start. You will never be 100% happy with your scape, at least I'm not. You think its great and then you add some stuff and go "I wish I would have done this like that....." ATO will be the best money spent. Keeps your tank more stable and if your gone for a day you dont need to have some come over to top up for you.
I would put the heater in the sump not the overflow. When you shut your return off the you will have to unplug the heaters everytime as your over flow will drain. Where as in the sump you don't have to unplug them at all. Maybe this is an old school way of thinking and new heaters can be on in the free air, but I would never let my heaters be on while not in water.
