The tank is not setup for a sump right now, it could be done with a hob overflow. There is also not a skimmer on it, we're running it with a deep sand bed ( 5 to 6 inches ) for the primary filter and a aquaclear 300 ( if memory serves ) with the filter media removed and crushed live rock and carbon in it. It would be easy to add a hob skimmer and you can pick them up for about 80 bucks give or take. ( again if memory serves, haven't looked into that for aver a year )
We've never had algae problems with it, the natural filters have been easily keeping up with the load.
