Yes, it has a ball valve, for now. (gate valves are costly for some reason).Tried to download the bottom half of the set up, but couldn't for some reason, It'll try a bit later.

Shiny, sure you want to put water and fish crap in there?

Centre pipe, you extending or for filter sock? Thinking if a drain might be a little splashing.

The centre pipe is a emergency overflow, just in case the main drain gets plugged or clogged. A safety feature to keep the tank from over flowing. The spashing, will creat a noise, that will warn me it needs attention.
