I also like the dwarf angels like the coral beauty or the flame angel. but the angels are not 100% reef safe sometimes they nip at coral. If it is your first reef tank I would get soft coral like zoo's or mushrooms they are easier to keep then hard coral. I also love the white pom-pom xenia they are pretty and grow quickly. I would also get some skunk cleaner shrimp because they are so entertaining they will climb on your hand while you clean the tank and clean your hand. and don't forget a to add some snails they are great for making algae easier to control and some eat fish waste and uneaten food. I'm sorry but I really don't know tons about a sump. There are many times I wish I had one to hide all the extra equipment to make my tank look less cluttered but I just have a hang on refugium.<br><b>References : </b><br>FW,SW, and Reef keeper If I were you and I had a 55 gallon SW I would get a scott’s fairy wrasse I love those and a midas blenny they have great personalities.

With a 10 gallon and no construction i'd say you could only put a skimmer at max. But i can't really see making a overflow/sump without doing labor.<br><b>References : </b><br> A sump is really recommended.
