Welcome to R2R!

Looks like a great list to start! Don’t be afraid to deviate if other options come up.

Welcome! I would caution the tangs and anthias in that tank, just my opinion. Not sure if you are aware, the dragnet is a difficult fish to acclimate as well.

That is a pretty extensive list. I don't know your experience level but: Even one tang in a 53 gallon is pushing it, two-no way; if you are fairly new I would not have anthias or the mandarin. Others may, and will, disagree so take my advice with a grain of salt but I think you would be better off with the blenny, clowns, basslet and damsels and wait on the others and even then pick the kole or the yellow but not both, preferably--neither.

Welcome! Glad you joined.

This is a good thread for feeding mandarins, as so many mandarins starve in this hobby. I culture copods so I can feed my tank supplemental pods 1-3x daily in addition to everything else I do.

Have you considered starting your build thread? I found its a great place to document my tank's evolution for myself. I started tank first then joined, so I'm still finding myself going back collecting pictures & updating historically as well as current state. Once you create your first post in your thread and link it to your account, they will give you build badge (look left, under my ID)

This is a good reference book type online article I still review:
