Melev's site has a great number of examples:

depending on how much room you have under your stand, you could even stack things like I did. Here is a shot of my setup from my build thread:

Try to be creative in maximizing your space so that you have the largest sump and refugium possible.

the website was very helpful thank you and how does your water from your fuge go down to your sump i can't tell from the photo

I had a hole for a 3/4" bulkead drilled through the bottom of the tank and the overflow for the fuge empties into the return section of my sump. The sump is fed off the return pump.

ok cool thank you

I set up my fuge from a 20 tall tank and put it on a stand next to the DT. I drilled it though, using a side cutting dremel glass tile bit. Cut very easy. I can tell you how to do it if you want. Bit costs 8 bucks or so. You just draw a circle and trace it out with the bit.

Anyway, here are pics of what I did:
