It's too bad you have a small foot print for the sump, a larger sump would be great. Are you having a tank for the ATO aswell?

Thanks dude! I'm running a 250W HQI with two 65W actinic PCs, but the PCs may be modded to T5s or LEDs in the near future.

I have room under the stand to have an ATO tank but I think I might just do an external reservoir that sits behind the tank (the tank is angled in a corner, so there is a mile of room behind it.

Ya, that's been my debate as well. I want the extra volume but the tank is already a bit of a PITA with the eurobracing (WHICH I WILL NEVER HAVE ON A TANK AGAIN!!!!) and the depth.
