I am starting up a 180 gallon mixed reef tank (mostly SPS) tank with a 40 gallon sump. Dimensions of tank are 60L x 30h x24 deep and trying to figure out which fish to add. Here is a list of the fish that I am considering. I would love input as to which fish would not do well together and what order to introduce these fish. I def am not looking to overstock so would also appreciate feedback on how many makes sense. Again these are the fish that I like not thinking I am fitting all of them in this tank.

3 - Cardinal Fish
3 Lyretail Anthias (1 male / 2female)
3 Royal Gamma
3 azure Damselfish
Lawn Mower Blenny – DO I need for algae control
1 Flame Hawkfish
1 Mandarin
Six Line Wrasse – Aggressive toward other wrasse – does this fish need a lid?
1 Copperband Butterflyfish
Fox Face –
Quoyi Parrotfish – are they too hard to keep alive?

TANG:
White Tail Tang
Powder Brown Tang
Powder Blue tang (how many can you put in one tank)
Convict Tang
Blonde Naso Tang
Sailfin Tang
Blue Throat Trigger (male & Female)
