What do you suggest?I think there is probably a huge varied opinion on that and I think most have their positives. You could make your's work just fine, but you cold also upgrade it pretty easy if you wanted to. A little DIY can make for an inexpensive sump.
What do you suggest?
Also a good idea.Your sump being only 3 chambers is not really conducive to having a fuge in it. You could use it and use a small 5 or 10 gallon as a remote fuge. This is what I would do with what you got. Wait for the petco $1/gal sale and get one. Either that or make or buy an acrylic one.
Here are the Fiji cube ones, they offer three sizes. Not the cheapest baffle option but they are nice kits, a friend of mine has one.

You could do two tiny fish. (Maybe a pair of ocellaris clownfish) I think two shrimp should be fine. Just make sure that you don’t put too many inverts.I have an empty tank and a piece of dead coral. I have a heater that was handed down with the tank. I'm confused with live sand and live coral. What would you use as a substrate that might have benefits to help keep the tank balanced? Do you think 2 tiny fish and 2 shrimp would be possible?
I had a really bad day. This made me cry a lot. In a good way.If you like send me a design you want for a sump and I can make it and send it to you. I built acrylic aquariums, filters, and a bunch of other stuff for the trade for over 30 years I think I could handle a custom sump for you and your son. I can build it to match your Tunze since I have most of the specs for them in my office files. No cost to you! Just trying to fan the flames of your young hobbiest and his new aquarium.
