Suggestions for New 55 Gallon tank

[DeckerDroneServices]

Hello Everyone,
I currently have a Fluval Evo 13.5, but I'm in the process of setting up and switching over to a 55 Gallon Oceanic Breeder. I do plan on having the tank setup as a reef tank. It will have a 29 gallon tank with the Fiji baffle kit setup underneath as a Sump with a Sicce Syncra Silent 4.0 as the return pump. I do not yet have a protein skimmer, lighting, or powerheads. If there are any suggestions on filtration, lighting, etc please let me know what you think.

I'm also looking to get some suggestions on what fish I should add to the tank. Listed below is my current livestock.

Thank you in advance for any suggestions!

Current Livestock:
2 Ocellaris Clown Fish
1 Pistol Shrimp
1 Yellow watchman Goby
1 Lawnmower Blenny
1 Engineer Goby

Currently I’m thinking the fluval marine 3.0 36” light. I have fluval lights on all my other tanks, but i’m not sure it will be enough light for that size tank. I’m trying to stay around the $200-$400 budget though. I like the ai lights, but I have never used one, and would prefer it be mounted to the tank and not hung over the tank

That light will be fine for softies, that's about it though

I've never seen a 55 breeder but I'd have to imagine the footprint is the same as a 75. Why not go larger if it's only the height that is the difference?

What are the dimensions of the tank?
