Back in 92, my sister came home with a bag of instant ocean and a blue ribbon eel for my 11th bday. I never thought I would love and hate saltwater so much.
I kept my ribbon for 3 years.
I'll keep this short, keep hairspray, perfumes, any type of air freshener away from your tank.
Your setup looks really sweet :)
Enjoy and love your fish when you get them.

Updates!

Today i finally added sand (live sand), and rock! I was working on my aquascape, and i think this is the scape i'll use. keep in mind this rock is 27 pounds, i know i need more, i will add more in the future when i get more corals and fish ;). What do you think?

Big yes. Looks great! Don't smother your tank with cluttering rock. Go with a look You like and use the sump for the rest.

usually. I heard about life rock and a lot of people say its great. But, I would still add real live rock. 5 to 10lbs

It's your tank. Gotta live and learn~! Sounds like a start with your list.
Pick your center piece.
