Opinions differ between 4in and 6in, so I guess anywhere in between shld be a safe bet. If your main tank has depth, u could partition off a good 6in with glass and fill it up with sand. Take note however, you may want to "seal" the sand surface with net/other material to prevent sand sifters ie blennies and wrasses from digging up your sand bed.

As for sump, pls do a forum search - there's so many designs and DIY possibilities too!

H :) ave fun
