So id like some collective help with stocking a 180. It will be a mixed reef mainly soft/lps. Yes I know the risks on some of the reef safe with caution fish like the puffer. More interested in the order in which I put these in for aggression. And any you would get out of the list or specific ones to look out for or preferred. Some names are specific some are just generalized. I would like some bigger groups of fish that will swim together. Also I don’t intend to have all of this, but giving an idea of what I have been looking at.

Fish list
Toby puffer
Clowns 5-8??
Engineer goby 1-3?
Cardinals 5
Yellow tang
Gobys
Algae blenny
Wrasses
Dart fish
Fire fish
Dwarf angel (maybe)
Chromis 5-10? Maybe change to anthias?
Fox face
Tang (blue/naso)

Various snails/hermits/shrimp
 
I’d skip the chromes and bump up the Anthias to like 6
Maybe 4 clowns, could work 6, I got 6 in a 210 so maybe
Looks good, maybe a lil loaded but sure to loose 1 maybe
I’d add the tang & foxface together
Cardinals? I know my Bangais get chippy when breeding, even a 6ft tank isn’t big enough
You going with sand?
