180G setup question

This is my plan: 180G, 72x24x24...the 2 fish, well 1 fish/1 shark that I would like to put in my aggressive tank setup is, bamboo cat shark and volitan lionfish. Im going to also get plenty of live sand and enough live rock for some caves for my shark leaving plenty of room to swim along the bottom floor. Since both of these guys work well in 75-80 degree waters. Im wondreing if i could put some tropical fish (possibly some larger clownfish) with some tropical looking coral and anemones. Do you guys have any suggestions as far as my tank. price isnt an object. But satisfaction is- meaning i want my "tankmates" to get along and not die/kill each other. Thanks

ok so no anemones lol. sorry, did you say that your maroon clown is with your shark? Which corals would you guys recommend to add that tropical look. If i understand correctly; so far im planning on gettin 2 or 3 tangs and maybe 2 clowns and a good lookin lion...would larger angel fish be ok? or will they try to kill my shark?

psusocr1 has his maroon with his shark. The angel will nip at the sharks eyes. The rest of the list looks good.

I know Jcrim had zoos with his agressives.
I am not into reefs so you might want to start a new thread in the reef forum.
