Welcome. Just a consideration if you plan to have corals at all this usually ends up in a lot of corals. Lighting a hex 44 could be difficult if you try to grow much more then zoa. Just a consideration. A few times a year pet co or pet smart can't remember sells tanks at $1 a gallon. A 40 breeder is a great tank and can be drilled for a sump. You can get one for $40 and lighting it to keep corals would be a little easier. Good luck with the set up.
