Looks good! I was very close to picking up a Vertex IN180 when I decided on the Bubble King 180 instead.
A Mag7 will give you about 500gph at 4' of head. For a 90G tank, I would get 2 or 3Koralia 3's for in tank circulation. Or you can get a couple...

With a CS-102, you can block off one of the bulkheads. It essentially becomes a CS-100, since they both use 1" bulkheads and have the exact same box...
