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.
