Well I got the tank all cleaned up and beaded the inside with silicone. Also decided I am going to run my Tunze skimmer just for kicks so I moved forward, cut a few more pieces of glass and put in a bubble trap.
Next step will be to put in the divider between the tank and sump/OF section, a little black acrylic and a return pump.

Well Rick it's like this, all my tanks have sumps with big ares skimmers & several bubble traps to eliminate any micro bubble that might be caused by the skimmer. I don't think I can run a system with out some kind of sump compartment & skimmer as it helps to clean the water some what as well as add O2 to the water column. I think I might add a small reactor with some carbon as well.
Did that help It will make more sense once I am finished building.

oct15th /2012- empty tank shots:
by this date some pics of your dry empty tanks and what ever equipment you may have is to be provided. So here is my 16 gal empty nano tank, with my Tunze 9010 skimmer in place. Also going to use a AC Jr. that I have just collecting dust to monitor temp & Ph.I will be putting my heater in the bubble trap on the skimmer side to let the water flow nicely past it. For my return pump I will be using a MarineLand MJ1200, that is if I can find where I put it.
