Looks nice! How big is the tank?

Thanks. It is a 150 Gallons Ferplast Star 160 tank. I made some modifications, like adding a sump and changing lighting system.

A close-up of the sump... The filters and medias are working perfectly... Ammonia and Nitrite nil...Nitrate 5-10 mg...But I got problems in maintaining the water level constant (in the main Tank)...I think it's due to Ferplast overflow design...I've to change it as well...

I always have problems with water level in my tanks also , but I chalk it up to evaporation

Water level in ALL my tanks never changes one little bit??
The purpose of a proper running overflow means levels only change in sump????
OP has a sump(pretty nice)....
Is last chamber in sump an ATO?
Ditch it or the last overflow if it is not IMO.
The added space to last space with return pump will allow longer time between top offs.
More volume in last return section is always tops on my list in my sumps.
