What livestock should I keep in my new 180 gallon build.

[AquariumCA]

Hi Everyone,

I have setup a new 180-gallon reef ready aquarium and I am open to suggestions on what to stock the aquarium with and in what order I should add them to the aquarium over the course of time. I will quarantine every fish before adding it to my aquarium.

Here is setup:
- 180 Gallon Marineland Reef Ready Display (Main Floor)
- Sump is in the basement which consists of 1 x 55 gal and 2 x 30 gal aquariums and has a total volume of 115 gallons

I am using CaribSea base rock and have cycled the tank. I now have two clownfish in there for about a week now.

I have a thing for tangs, triggers, pistol shrimp/watchman goby, soft to medium corals (mainly zoanthids, torch, hammer, and xenia). If you guys can keep these in mind that would be great. Also I have been doing some research and am considering keeping livestock from the list below together if possible.

CORAL BEAUTY
CLOWN TRIGGER
3 x YELLOW TANG
SIXLINE WRASSE
5 x GREEN CHROMIS
RABBIT FISH
2 x BANGGAI CARDINAL
BLUE HIPPO TANG
25 x BLUE LEG CRAB
2 x CLEANER SHRIMP
TIGER PISTOL SHRIMP
BLUE SPOT WATCHMAN GOBY
5 x INDO SAND STARFISH
BLONDE NASO TANG
AFRICAN FIREFISH GOBY
GREEN MANDARIN GOBY

I have attached a picture of my tank to this thread. Let me know what you guys think.

Thanks
