Have you looked into a protein skimmer yet? They make a world of difference most of the time for most systems.

I would run a sump and put rock in there. The Live Rock is where alot of your filtration comes from because its what houses the bacteria needed for the nitrogen cycle, without if you are bringing a knife to a gun fight for lack of a better analogy. Run a sump/fuge and put a good amount of rock in there.

So, what it the tank setting on? You could put the sump on the side. As long, as you have a skimmer, and maybe add more rock. Just my thought.
