Budget 75 or 90 Gallon Build

Hi All,

I've got a rare opportunity to grab a 75 or 90 gallon Marineland tank that is sitting out back of the LFS due to some damage that occurred during shipping (side pane has a crack). The side panel with the crack will go against a wall so it is not one of the viewing panes. Now... IF I can get it to seal up I'd like to go sumpless and use one of the Fiji AIO kit's (which would go over the cracked panel).

I'd like to use the center chamber of the AIO kit as a fuge with cheato and LR chunks or a skimmer if absolutely necessary.

Main tank would have 135 lbs live rock and a 1" sand bed.

Water changes would need to be 5 gallon/week.

My question is what is the feasibility of this setup from a filtration stand point?

Can or has it been done?

Am I losing my mind

?
