Innovative Marine 170 EXT build

Hello, I am getting back into the hobby and just ordered a IM 170 EXT tank and stand. I’m very excited to start this build and have to wait up to 6 months for the tank to be delivered so I want to use that time to buy equipment and plan everything out.

I opted to not get the sump/plumbing with the tank because I would like to run a roller mat and their sumps don’t support one. I am looking at a Luna Reef ECCO 4418. Has anyone used one of these or any Luna sump? Are they worth the money? I was also hoping for some help with plumbing, I’ve only ever had Red Sea tanks and the pluming is all pre cut and easy to attach. I’ve never done it 100% from scratch.

Any other advise I’ll gladly take. I’m looking to buy once and cry once on equipment.
