Sorry, I should of been more clear.

I mean in the stand itself. The shop next door is doing the outer paneling for me. I'm going to be putting a 20g sump in the stand. I'm wondering if I should have him leave some round/square holes in the back for the plumbing? Or should I do that myself later on? I know I want to put a fan inside, to suck air in (or out) however, I figured i'd do that later once I actually get the fans, and know the size).

Also should I have the side/front/back panels come up about 1/2" around the top side? To act as a lip to somewhat keep the tank inside?

I know I'll need one hole probably on the side panel, near the bottom for the plug to go thru.
