Not sure what you mean exactly by "what kind".

Basically, you want to go with the largest sump you can fit under your tank.

You can partition this off to make part of it your fuge. I have like 4 inches of sand and chaeto in mine.

I think you could use your megaflow, remove the bioballs, and put your coralife skimmer down there and use part of it for your fuge if you wanted.

Alternatively, you can buy a fuge to hang on the back of your tank too.

Best wishes,

i also have a 72 bow, i believe that you can fit a 55 gal tank under the stand but if not a 30 gal would give you plenty of room for your skimmer and refugium

A 72 bowfront stand gets too narrow at the ends to put much of a tank under there, it is best to do an acrylic DIY job, or have a 2 part sump made. There are height restrictions as well since you need to be able to lift the collection cup off of your skimmer.

Here is the 2 part sump I did for my old tank:
