Any Naso will eventually outgrow a 180 gallon. The blue hippo is borderline, but is doable depending on a few factors.

The rest looks just fine.

Almost all butterflies are not reef safe, in case you didn't already know.

Hi, I just found this and wanted to let you know that Hippo will be fine for a 180 I think that is minimum since 190 - 220 only add height to the tank. Take a look at some of the tangs I plan on getting or might: Achilles, Purple, Blue Hippo, and Whitetail Bristletooth. There are tons of tangs to choose from and I think Naso requires a length of 8'. But Hippo should be fine, tell me some tangs you like.
 

Looking back to your reefing roots: Did you start with Instant Ocean salt?
