I myself used a normal fishtank for my filter(sump). I bought a 40 gallon breeder tank for my 90.

A chiller isnt necassary unless you are going to have temperature problems. If you have A/C in the house and it stays coold you shouldnt have a problem.

here is a pic of the fish tank I bought and made my filter out of.
