i recently set up my chichlid tank! it is only a 90l. i only want small dwarf chichlids. i just want to sump the tank!

can anyone recommend a cheap but effective internal overflow, and return pump and also the type of filter medium i would need to use!
I have a 3' tank to use as the sump 100+ liters. i just need to get the glass cut for the 3 sections i want to install i have thought about bath sponges and separating the second chamber so the water is drawn through the sponge and under a baffle.
i don't need excessive amounts of water to be shifted so smaller would be good!

get your tank drilled...hang on's are no good. if it breaks syphon when you are not home you will have huge problems..just my opinion.some one here may have better idea.. when you get a tank drilled the will put 2 holes in the tank and they are fed off gravity not syphon.
