    Welcome to 3reef!

    Sounds like you've got a solid plan put forth already . If I may, I'd like to suggest another power head in there. From experience my 20 long needed one at each end (a 425
    And a 240gph Koralia nanos) to create sufficient flow. I would go for another 425 and you can tinker with placement and flow once you've got it wet and have inhabitants.

    The length of a 20L is kinda tricky to get good flow in with small power heads. I ended up putting a 1200 gph maxi jet in for more flow down the road. Didn't look as good as the koralias but it did the job. Just something to consider. Good luck with it, I sure did love my 20L!
