mikey...first ...welcome to the best board on the net.....second....you may want to move this topic to the reef section......probably will get more attention over there
Now as for filtration.....I keep a 55 reef and my filtration consists of the following:
100+lbs of LR
100 lbs of LS(in the display)
CPR Bac Pac 2r skimmer (in my refugium)
millinium 3000(in the refugium...with no media....except for monthly carbon/phosphate sponge)
30 gal refugium with 60 lbs LS and assortment of caulpera
above is the combination of filtration........also I maintain calcium @ 450 ppm..alkalinity @ 2.8-3.5 meg/l..ph @ 8.3.......and I use only ro/di water for all top-off & water change

your best bet is setting up a 55 or 75 gal. sump.using either a wet/dry or ls with pumps a berlin skimmer and sticking you heater and all that good stuff in there also setting up a refugium is a good idea, it looks cool and is very efficient also
