For filtration I'll be using a 55gallon custom sump and a Reef Octopus DNW-300 Recirculating Skimmer and at least 150lbs of Live Rock
The lighting will be a 72" MH/PC/Moonlight fixture
As for the stocking list, I know there are a few fish I would like (Hippo Tang, Clownfish (Probably Percula), the rest I haven't decided quite yet
sounds like its going to be a pretty sweet tanks. i suggest planning more on the stocking prior to adding any fish so you can decide a good order in which to do so.
have you looked in your area for a local reef club?
im iffy about the 3 tangs and the 2 different species of clowns. your also better off IMO to up the number of chromis and lower the number of neon gobies. i have heard that the chromis will kill off the weakest one, one by one until your left with one. im not sure how true this is, as i have no personal experience with them, just something to consider.
Try not to mix if they are the same Genus: Acanthurus, Parancanthurus, Ctenochaetus, Naso or Zebrasoma. If you do mix Genus, add them at the same time and watch them carefully.
Pasfur gave me great advice when I asked about stocking my 150. Read this thread.
