I’m completely new and only in the research stage so please be gentle lol!!! I want to do a FOWLR 180 gallon tank. 360 LBS of live rock, I plan on running 2 filters ,Premier Series Wet/Dry Filtration System 400 (45" x 12" x 18") - Pro Clear Aquatic Systems would this work?? If not any suggestions?? The protein skimmer I plan to use is FC-180 In-Sump Protein Skimmer. Would this work, if not any suggestions?? The heater I plan on using is 400W Titanium Aquarium Heater w/ Helio Controller - Redundancy Bundle, should I use 2 one on each side of the tank?? Any suggestions?? Lighting I definitely need some input on, help!!??? Any other equipment I’m missing??? Now let’s talk about my first wishlist: 1. Orange-back angelfish (Centropyge acanthops) 1.Black Cap Basslet(GRAMMA MELACARA). Group of 4-6 Blue Gudgeon dart fish(PTERELEOTRIS HETEROPTERA). Group of 4-6 bicolor chromis (CHROMIS MARGARITIFER) 1. Pink skunk clownfish (AMPHIPRION PERIDERAION) do I need an Anemone or no?? 1.Splendid Dottyback(PSEUDOCHROMIS SPLENDENS). I would love some invertebrates/ clean up crew, I’m just not sure what would work and be appropriate. I look forward too any and all feedback. Thanks
