Need some measurements

I am up grading from a 75g to a 135g.I also have a 20g long.I'm going to try my hand at making a sump/refugium.The tank [75g] is currently a FOWLR.May try some reef life in the future.I am looking for the "foot print" of a an ASM skimmer or perhaps an a better skimmer.Also the foot print of a mag7 or mag9 pump so that I can plan my baffle placements.MY 75g has a wet dry with a single 600gph overflow.I think I'll get a dual[2 U pipe overflow} 1200 gph so I think the mag7 or mag 9 will do for a return pump.Any measurements are good and all opinions are welcomed.
ps Darn refractometer.
