Thanks, must be on Pacific Time Zone or up late.

Anyway, your questions bottom up, yes have minimum 1 if not two fans (105 cfm each) planned with central air in the house. 1st fan goes in the sump area. Will do a trial run with water before adding sand & LR. Also have T5 Nova extremes with built in fans and 8" canopy so I can add a fan up there as well. I have room for a chiller, but not the $$. LFS recommendation is I can get by without chiller. Hope to have it up and running soon and can watch the temp before adding livestock. Staring at the tank now and working on a plumbing solution.

I have a glass sump and not up to drilling my first tank, so all pumps will be submersible at this point.

On the pump, I have the mag 12, reluctant to start off with this based on all the negative comments. Preference would be 1 pump for 3 returns, but the largest Eheim looks weak in terms of flow.
