looking for plans to build a sump. AND Is a sump better than a hang on like an emporer 400 and if so why?

That would depend on WHAT you want to do with it. What are your reasons for wanting one?

Advantages of a sump?

*more water volume in your system
*ability to run a better skimmer
*good place to hide your heater
*choose your own return pump, according to need
*less visibility than a hang on filter
*room to add more base or live rock
*easier to run calc reactors
