I am getting ready to order a ~48x30x24 tank. I am also thinking of getting a sump made but I would like to keep it simple. I plan to run a Zeo Reactor and SKimmer in the sump. I really like the Reef in the Sky Design and have attached the design below. http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1767159

My only worry is having enough room for a top off and a possible doser/reactor underneath the tank. I was thinking of trying to fit a 5-10g top off along with the sump. Dimensions of the sump would be around 34x20x16. What do you guys think of the design and size? How much do you think I could fit under the tank?

Also keep in mind any clearance needed to clean or remove a skimmer, pump.. etc.
