planning on setting up an 75 gallon for an octo and was wondering

ive got a 90 gallon acrylic frag overflow tank and thinking about using it as the sump for the oct tank
im thinking about setting it up so that the octs food will live in the lower section of the frag tank which is huge and i can create island of sand ect for fiddler crabs ect and keep them alive in large numbers and use the top section for whatever else. will this bio load be too much for the system app. 75 +90+20 gallon for skimmer system?
any feed back be nice also the frag tank would have vho lighting to keep the coraline algae ect growin for bio filtration
