Currently cycling my 327 gal that will be a FOWLR/mild predator tank. Have 240 lbs of dry rock, 220 lbs of special grade sand and a 60 gal sump with two 9.5 " filter socks and an oversized skimmer. Will be running a macro algae reactor(s) and or refugium and GFO/Carbon reactors with weekly water changes. Tank is 84x30x30 and livestock will be added slowly over the course of a year or so. Here is my planned stocking list. I think compatibility is good (feel free to weigh in), but concerned I may be overstocked. Thoughts?

Two Barred Rabbitfish x 2 (juveniles I already have and will be rehoming from a 120 mixed reef)

Zebra Moray Eel

Vagabond Butterflyfish

Harlequin Tusk

Porcupine Puffer

4 Tangs (added together as juveniles)
Powder Brown
Hippo
Desjardini
Blonde Naso (this guy may be too big even for this tank)

Gold X Lighting Maroon Clownfish x 2

Blueface Angelfish

Triggers (added at same time as juveniles)
Sargassum or Crosshatch
Pinktail

May do a 2 for 1 swap and put an Orange Shoulder in for both the Naso and Powder Brown...still on the fence about the best Zebrasoma as well
