Check out my build thread -- I had a custom sump built for the tank, as well as did the drilling myself... but this is very similar to the direction I'm taking:

Precision Marine up in New Braunfels makes some extremely high quality sumps, and likewise there is a great diversity of options available online (Such as Eshopps brand equipment). For a skimmer, I went with a Tunze 9010 -- I'm a big Tunze fan though, and this is very likely overkill for my tank

I'm using a Mag 9.5 for my return pump -- teed off to dual returns, with a pair of Koralia 3's and a Vortech MP10 as supplemental water movement within the display.

Hope that helps!
