New Tank To take to Norway

I bought this 65gallon that I fell in love with to ship to Norway when I leave.

I will have 2 Metal Halides on it for lighting, but I have no idea how to filtrate this thing.

Look at the pics and tell me what you would do please. I was told you cant drill a hole to have it go down to a sump because its a Jebo and I guess you cant drill those. There is no overflow.

I was going to have a Canister filter- No way I can afford one of those canister wet/dry filters.

I was also going to have 2 filters that you can hang in the water sorta and have 2 powerheads.

If you have any suggestions please let me know. Thankee!!

Really depending on what you stock you could just add some LR and just change water to remove nitrates

I got a wetdry sump my friend gave me. Going to have to cut the back out so 4 inches can fit underneath.

I am going to have it come down to the sump and back up through the holes back into the tank.

What is a Hob overflow?

Thanks

Eric

Hang on Back overflow. Lifereef makes a good one. It is a box that hangs on the back side of the glass and drains water down into the sump. It is an alternative to drilling the tank.
