Why not stand it up in a chamber that will remain at a constant level? Have a look at the heater and there will be a water line on it, it wont have to be fully submerged. With vortechs not having cords on them you would get a cleaner look as well if the heater was not in the dispaly.

Also, just a thought. Not sure what your water level is in the sump but you might want to bring your returns closer to the surface of the water to reduce the ammount of back syphon. If you have lots of room for the extra water then no worries. Looks like your about 1.5" under the water. With your footprint your looking at about 7g of water. Or drill a small hole just below the water surface in them.
