How the sump is set up depends on what you want to do with the tank. Are you doing a Fish Only tank or a Reef? If you are doing a Fish Only, then your trickle filter with the bioballs would be fine. If you are doing a reef, I would remove everything from the trickle filter (or better yet sell it and start with a new tank and customize it).

Also, you don't really need that much liverock. I would say get 50lbs or so of good quality live rock and use base rock for the rest. Over time the base rock will become live rock anyway. You'll save yourself a lot of cash as well.
