120g reef stocking? What fish, inverts, corals, ect?

[LagginPotato]

Hey guys. I am getting ready to set up my first ever reef tank. It will be a rectangular (not sure of exact dimensions) 120 gallon tank. I am pretty set on this list of fish but I need some help from more experienced people and want some opinions on whether this is a good fish stock. Heres the list of the fish I hope to add:

-(2) Occellaris Clownfish (1 normal, 1 black & white) - Max size: 3"
-(1) Powder Blue Tang - Max Size: 9"
-(1) Yellow Tang - Max Size: 8"
-(1) Whitecheek Tang - Max Size: 8"
-(1) Schooling Bannerfish - Max Size: 8.5"
-(5) Bartlett's Anthias (1 male, 4 female) - Max Size: 3.5"
-(1) Scott's Fairly Wrasse (Fiji) - Max Size: 6"
-(1) Whip Fin Fairy Wrasse - Max Size: 3.5"
-(1) Neon Damselfish - Max Size: 2.5"
-(1) Coral Beauty Anglefish - Max Size: 4"

So that's the plan. Obviously I wouldn't add all these fish at once. I'd probably start with just the two clownfish and maybe the damsel, then put the three tangs in, and so on. Do you guys think all these fish would get along fairly well and it's the right amount of fish for a 120g, and that all these fish would have enough swimming room and not get stressed too easy? I picked fish that all (according to LiveAquaria) have a minimum tank size of under 125 gallons.

Also, I want a clean up crew as well. Does anyone know how many and what kind of shrimp, hermit crabs, and snails I should get? And lastly, what corals are the best for beginners? Thanks.

I would scratch the damsel and the powder blue from the list

This is the third stock thread you have made in the last day or two. Are you looking for someone to tell you that all your choices are fine? Read the stickies about tangs and tank sizes. You'll save yourself a headache in the long run. More importantly you may choose to stock with appropriately sized fish.

Good luck.

Scott's fairy can be a bit aggressive with other wrasses. Clowns and a damsel may not work out. All of those tangs are too big for the tank. The hippo needs a tank at least 2x that size. Any bristletooth tang would be fine. The bannerfish is pushing it a little. You'd have a tough time keeping so many large fish happy and healthy.

pick one tang instead of three, it would be easier in the end. If by neon damsel you mean allens damsel you will be fine, a yellowtail would work too. Some smaller fishes that would work would be blennies (tailspots are cool), dottybacks (fridmani are nice and tank raised), dartfish (red and purple are really pretty), flame hawkfish and royal gramma.
