First time plumbing a tank and I’m not sure where I start. Any help or instructions would be appreciated. Thanks

Probably the same plumbing pack that came with my tank, 150 sca. 15470951947732507787062360786376.jpg 1547095218605342067064859284491.jpg 15470952422536130480020294583532.jpg
The plumbing under the tank you'll have to buy.

I have a 90 and on mine I have the emergency drain much higher than in the post above. That way there is no splashing sound from the water dropping over the weir. Use two 45 degree PVC fittings with a short piece of PVC connecting them so the emergency drain will get around your return pipe. I only used the return pipe they provided and pretty much threw everything else they sent away.

That's a great idea thanks. I have my pump running at half power cause it's too loud.
