Just getting started with my tank but already love that egg crate stuff from Home Depot along with zip ties. Does wonders when I need to do just about anything in my sump.

 

I work in a construction company so I just had our mechanic break out the welder and make me a nice heavy steel light stand for my clamp on grow light for my sump. Custom baby!

 

Other than that...just some power tools & hacksaws to start aquascaping my rocks.
