Question Sump configuration advice please !

Hi, hoping to get some advice on the configuration of my sump... three possibilites I'm looking at 2 with a fuge and 1 without.
This is going under a AGA 92 gal corner tank and is pretty much maxed out on size...
Diagrams are a top down view... making sure that everything I want to get in there will fit
I'll take any input you have!
BTW... all three would be 14" high...
Thanks!
Natalie

In options 1 and 2 you have the width's at 12". In option 3 it's 10". If you use option 3 I would also make it 12" if you have the room.
