Filter system suggestions for a 180 for ray

[Chasintail]

My retic is currently housed in a 120 tank with a commercial wet/dry system underneath in the cabinet. I hope to soon have my 180 gallon set up and am looking for suggestions on a filter system for that. I'd like to have something quite functional without the expense. Toss out some suggestions if you would.

Is it drilled? If it is then you could build yourself a sump relatively cheap.

yup i build wet/drys out of rubbermail bins and drawers

It is not drilled, though I not opposed to trying one of the hang on overflows.

I used a hang on over flow with my 370, it worked great! Just take the filtration from your 120 and use it on your 180 gallon.

Do a diy K-1 sump like mine. I still haven't put the doors on the stand because it is fun to see + crystal clear water

I should have mentioned that I plan on keeping the 120 up and running. Does anyone have plans for their sump?
