I asked what you want to keep for a very good reason.
Your Skimmer is VERY important. And you mentioned a sump. A sump is simple, and fairly cheep. I noticed you don't have a drilled tank. Look into the CPR Overflows. They are very thin. They require a $20 Aqua lifter pump, but well worth the money. In a few months you won't see them with all the Coraline.
But when you are considering a sump, thinking about your skimmer is VERY important.
Its like this. Do it right now, or pay later.
Say you buy that HOB skimmer, and decide you want SPS Corals? Now you need a GOOD skimmer, and most HOB skimmers aren't all that great. The longer the pre-mixed air and water travels thru the tube, the more the bubbles join together, and you REALLY want small micro bubbles. On the subject of microbubbles. A HOB skimmer, and no sump = lots of microbubbles in the display, and nobody wants that! With a a sump, you can set up a bubble trap, and your water has more time to get rid of the tiny, cloudy bubbles before the return pump puts the water back in the display.
If it were me, I would invest in a sump. I had issues with nitrates all the time before I started using a sump. That Fluval? Its nice, buts its old school tech. Its a good setup for a freshwater tank. Nitrifying bacteria in a saltwater reef is alot different that freshwater. You will be greatly rewarded in the end with a stable system. Plus with a sump, you can get a nice recirculating skimmer. With a sump you can have a refugium. A refugium is a complete ecosystem aswell. You have all kinds of pods breeding, and the young make it back to the display, pods eat other algae, and waste matter. Macro algae in a fuge can consume MASSIVE amounts on Nitrates, and Phosphates.
Seriously, a good sump, and GOOD skimming is the key to a successful, happy, reef tank.
