I have a 180 gallon mixed reef and have the following fish.

Blue hippo
Orange shoulder
Purple tang
Flame wrasse pair
5 chromis
Manderin
Zebra moray

In QT now and adding soon.

Copperband
Sailfin
Yellow tang
Starry blenny

Still would like to get.

Naso
Royal gramma
 
At least a few years....all live rock was used....yes have a fuge
 
I don't think its terrible. Might get aggression with all the tangs but as far as the number of fish I don't think you are too far off.
 
It would work, but I would have added the Naso first and then the zebrasomas last.
 
I have a list just like that, and a few others, so you have enough room for more. My tank hasn't been running as long as yours, but after 15-20 fish, I've had better luck adding 1 or 2 at a time. Wait awhile before adding more. If you can make a rock display change, shift your stuff around, do a water change, then add the new fish. Good luck!
