your on the right track. my only suggestion is like denny said install overflow box and read up on different styles of drains. personally im a bean animal fan. dead quite and multiple fail safes.

second is the sump regardless of size i prefer wide and shallow. i recently took a 75 gallon torn it apart. took the glass to the glass shop and had them cut 8" off the height. it turned out to be 55g or so after i rebuilt it

i ran a 180g mixed reef without a reactor. there are pros and cons so its up to you. i did biweekly wc and manually dosed ca mg and kh



btw take the jump. i could never seem to keep fw. i tried multiple cichlid tanks without luck. tried saltwater did my reserch and bam im hooked like its crack
