here is my initial design for the back. i am keeping the side view a secret for now. 
this is designed on a 12" by 16" footprint. i am having a little problem finding the pumps i need, so i may have to increase the footprint to 17" by 16". i was hoping to put this on my desk at work, but at this size it may be problematic.
whatcha think?

i think i found my pumps! now if i could find a way to get them. 
http://www.aquaticeco.com/index.cfm/.../8787/cid/2142
does anybody have any experience with these? they look like Sen's, but i have not found any info anywhere else on them. i emailed aquaticeco and they said it was able to run external and is tiny!
these may be a great nano pump!
