Where to put CaRx with small tank?

I currently have a 120g tank in my garage. I am tired of not being able to enjoy the tank as well as the issues that come from the extreme temps of the garage. I am currently breaking my tank down and plan to setup something smaller in the house. I only have room for a 36" tank so I am looking at a WaterBox 100.3 which is 36x24x22. I have a vertex 180i skimmer I would like to use but not sure if it will fit but my main concern is what do I do with my Apex and my lifereef calcium reactor, Co2 bottle as well as the cole parmer pump?
 
I don't know how your house is laid out or what your other half situation, but those cole Parmer pumps can move water a long distance. Especially laterally. If you can manage hiding some tiny water lines it would be possible to essentially put them anywhere. I put mine in a small wooden cabinet next to the display

Not sure how their cabinets are set up but take a look at the redsea reefer showoff thread you can get some really good ideas how to utilize a small space
 
I can post pics of underneath the 100.3 if your interested in specifics. I have a few pictures already on reef central under my new build thread too.
 
Let me know if you need dimensions or anything.
