Tell me your thoughts?

Don't want to sound negative or anything but it kind of sounds like you don't know alot about corals. Lots of people now are switching from a Reef tank to a FOWLR tank (Fish Only With Live Rock). I've heard too many stories of people spending hundreds or thousands on Corals throughout months and then within 2 days they all die from a spike in the water. Just want to let you hear something negative so you can make the right choice. Also if you are a true hobbyist it won't be hard to learn what you don't already know. Good luck to it all. If you are going to do a community FOWLR tank then take a look and my aquarium and you'll get an idea of what will go together.

You are not going to add all these fish at once are you? Space out each fish addition a couple months. Get a final list together and get them in the order that is best (for example the yellow tang needs to be added last as he may be a bully to newbie fish.)
