not really. the lighting stuff can be a bit Confusing. With fluro tubes wattage has little to no effect on "brightness" or you could say par. just thik of a 2ft tube compared to a 4ft tube. is the four foot tube brighter per Foot of tube There are different bulbs with different K (kelvin) rateings. depending on the K rating, this can give the impression of being brighter or dimmer.

No need to tap the glass as this can cause (to the untrained) to run off. just scribe put a wooden pencil in the centre of the scribe.

just push a little bit of glue out of the red tip, leave to dry. next time just pull it off and away you go. the glue won't etch into the glass, nothing will. you will find if you give the cloudy bit a good rub or get a new sharp razor blade it will come off.

couple of 25mm bulkheads should be fine, as for sump heaps of designs around, they do not have to be that big either, for that size tank a sump around 900 x 450 x 450 would be sweet. What rate are you getting the glass for??
