Looking good! Not sure if you need carbon at start, after all this is only to catch toxins and mostly meds from the water, which will not be there at start :) I would leave it out and add after the first water change.

yeah, the dust is on it, you can add 40ppi sponge at the outlet so this will polish the water :) just do not buy ready-made ones, try finding a sheet, much cheaper and you can cut to size :)

edit: pack as much material as you can to the middle section of the sump, more surface better bio-filtering as the bacs will have place to colonize :) like twice what you have there :)
