Adding a sump-Now or Later?

[Bizzaro]

Right now my tank, stand are empty. I want to install a sump but not at this time. Should i just go out n find a 60G tank and place it inside cuz the tank is empty an easy to move but work on it later. Or would it be ok to just buld the class sump later on with peace of glass from HomeD? My store has all the sheets to make a 100g tank under there but peace by peace..... Come to think about it the peace of glass are thin too.

So im asking which idea do u think would be better? I want a sump but no time to build it n i dont want to cut a side door out of the tank onetoday (seen some ppl do it like a hiden door) to add a 60g fish tank inside. I can also slide in A 40 in the front but it has to be small... The plan behide that is just stack the bio tower tall... I think im blabering on.

If the tank is drilled... I definately would not leave it filled below the top of the intake without a sump/plumbing in place...

If the tank is not drilled and you plan to use an HOB style overflow box this could be added after the tank is set up. It will make building the plumbing much more complicated and I would be very leery of making alterations to the stand while the tank is full.

its easyer to run plumbing behind a tank when its not full of water...
