Looking for someone to drill a glass tank

I know no guarantees. I have a 55 that will fit under the stand of the 450. My idea is to have the skimmer flow into that tank, drill the tank up at the top, and then have a pipe from the top of the tank to flow into the sump. That way the water that comes from the skimmer will have not much nutrient, and the macro will take out whatever little bit there is left. Fill the bottom 1/4 with rubble rock or DSB, cant decide on that one, with chaeto filling the rest of the tank. The drain hole will be as far to the top as possible and still let the bulk head fit.

Good idea? Will add another 50 gallons to system which I also like
