New to the Marine hobby!

Hey everyone, I've had a freshwater tank set-up for many years and decided to give saltwater a try.
I'm retired now and I have time to start a new project. So I have a 75 gallon tank, Current USA Orbit LED light system, Octo HOB protein skimmer,
Fluval FX-4 canister filter, Reef Breeders Exo ATO, and a Hydor Koralia 1150 pump. Have the live aragonite sand, test kits, water conditioners, etc.
Waiting on a cart from Home Depot to help me move things for water changes, cleaning equipment amongst other things. Planning on just a FOWLR
set-up for now and using some live rock to get tank cycled. I would greatly appreciate any advice y'all may have. Probably start with Damsels, Royal
Gramma, Flame Angel or Flame Hawk, or a Coral Beauty, and snails, hermit crab or 2..... any ideas???

Welcome,

You already have me as a fan. This is the exact type of tank I am in to. It is a great set up for what you have planned in my opinion. Can’t wait to see pics.
