Hi what size sump do you need ? how many baffles do you want , to stop micro bubbles. What are you keeping in the sump ? "any plant life,filter wool,carbon etc etc.
my best advice to say to you is, think of what you intend in keeping in the sump, then i can help you a little more if you need it :) more info will make it easier,but there are loads of designs out there for both freshwater and saltwater.

a good canister would be much easier to do for a 160L something like an eheim 2217 would be more than adiquate.
