32 gallon reef tank

Hi people!,

A year after my previous reef tank I decided to start a new one.
At the beginning of this week I got a Juwel Lido 120 aquarium. I'm going to modify this tank so it will have a sump and a durso standing pipe wich is feeded by surface water.
I made a 3D-drawing of the concept:

thats cool...just take it slow and do it right. how are the fish stores over there? lot of reefing in the Netherlands?

The most used reefing forum in The Netherlands counts 6336 members, which is nothing against 204459

. But there are plenty of stores. The longest possible train travel in The netherlands is little over 4 ours

. I think in a few years I will have visited all reefing stores in my own country.

I got some tips from our forum in the Netherlands about the Durso standing pipe, but want to know your opinion also. Is the design of the Durso allright? (see picture below)

Hey, tank looks awesome!

What equipment are you using on it?
How have you set your overflow and sump up?

TIA
