Ok so got a 75 aqueon for 75$ new as an accident. And got a 20g long 2 months ago for free so perfect for sump and want 2 make a stand with it completely empty middle have ideas (like a deck). With a top I can use a small marineland pump
And do a gravity refugium above and as a show tank as well and will keep the sump cleaner vs a fug in sump. Man question what's the BEST BANG FOR BUCK LIGHTING. Lookn 2 ho hybrid t5 and led so askn ur professional and tested revive on a modular led, I prefer modular as I can add more but with a bar it's only that length. But basically want 2 t5s led between 2t5s and I could move the leds around if needed. I hope I'm making sense. Thanks
 
And just 2 get this out have a 20g 2 powerheads bio wheel HOB. And that's it for filteration so lookn 4ward 2 a sump. Also should I have it drilled professionally I have a 10g I can practice on but rather have no worries. And should I do 1 or 3 feeds 2 or 1 top and the centerish middle prolly 1/3 from bottom 2 blow between rock work or just use a powerhead. My main question about post was how much rock the led "ufo" style and drilling as wanted 2 drill my 20 and use 20lomg for it but this tank was impossible 2 pass up. So now I've got a plan. Also what size overflow hole/holes should they b and the centered return size bulkhead. And I figure Ima need a 360 gph return pump or go bigger as I might include a 55 breeder 2 it. Thanks
