225 gallon stock list ideas

What is your guys opinion keeping the achilles with the blue hippo in this tank?
 
You are going to have problems with the Achilles, Hippo and maybe the tomini and Whitetail not getting along in a 5ft tank. Maybe look at the convict, mimic, lavender tangs. Imo you have too many wrasse and too many tangs in that size tank. Length is doing you no justice. I have a 7ft 250 with only 19 fish, 5 tangs (Lieutenant, mimic, yellow, sailfin, tomini), Regal and Majestic Angels. 5 wrasse and some other small fish.

Yes, I haven't updated the list, I am removing the diamond tail, madagascar, rohmboid, and labouts.
 
This isn't going to be a forever tank, do whitetail tangs and tomini tangs really have that much difficulty mixing them?
