That's why I like this club, people stepping up to help each other out.

To quote what bcrueter said "doesn't look to hard"

The larger box is the sump

The smaller rectangular box is the overflow(it goes on the side on the tank and siphons the water to the sump- usually they are connected to a power head or aqualfter pump)

The clear tube is the protein skimmer (a pump injects air and water together and the crude "skims" to the top)

The pipe is most likely the "return" to the tank.

As for putting it all together, there is an infinite number of possiblies and everyone has there own style that they prefer. Once you see one working it will make perfect sense. With these terms you can search this forum and the web to find what you prefer.

Good luck and Happy Reefing
