65 gallon build!

So, the tank is almost ready for pickup fro RC with holes and overflow installed so i decided to start planning my sump. I think i've decided on an Aqua-C EV-120 skimmer. mostly for its incredibly short stature and alleged ability to keep up with most of the good tower versions.

If anyone has one used, or has used one. im interested in speaking with you...

I've laid out the sump so i can maintain an 11" water level for the skimmer (which ill have to prop up 3 inches as it cannot sit in water any deeper than 8).
The left compartment is drain/refuge with a DSB and probably some LR/rubble over top of it to catch any of the big chunks. Going to use some PVC with holes drilled to spread the water evenly overtop of the dsb.
Second compartment will be for the skimmer. followed by a bubble trap and the return section.



any thoughts on the layout would be greatly appreciated before i go and get the glass... :-) on that note, anyone know a good shop to get it from?
