Can you take a picture of what the bottom cabinet looks like (with the door open)?

A picture as Biffer requested a picture would be helpful. You might also want to take some measurements of the available space beneath the stand then take a look at a standard size tank list to see what can fit. I would assume that a 10 gal would fit, but that's just me taking a guess as I've never seen one of these tanks in person.
Here's a link to standard aquarium sizes

You have four general options.
1. Find a pre-made retail sump that fits in your cabinet.
2. Find a tank or some other store-bought container that fits under your cabinet and convert it into a sump.
3. Go completely custom and build a sump from scratch. http://www.melevsreef.com/allmysumps.html
4. Find a remote location like behind the wall in the next room, or next to your tank. Basically anywhere except inside your cabinet. Then you can choose between options 1, 2 or 3.
Check out the link in #3. That might spark some ideas. Lots of great sump info on that site.
