Well, after my stepdad had a look at my reef tank...he wanted one. He has kept Saltwater Tanks before. I am going to give him the Glass Top, the Lighting Fixture, and an Amiracle Wet / Dry Filter. We both decided it was best that he doesn't do a reef because he's not home very much. But what I'm really here for is I need help with a decent stocklist, I have never made a FOWLR stocklist before.
Thanks Guys!

Lets start it off with a Snowflake Eel

a 45 with all those fish is way to much...the snowflake eel alone is enough on the bioload in a 30 n then if u add all those other fish ur asking for trouble imo...could be wrong...

IMO/IME a sfe is going to be quite cramped in a 45. While not terribly active they grow large and fast. You also need to keep them with larger fish and you just don't have the room. If the eel is an absolute must have, I'd make it a species only tank with just the eel, some large hermits, cleaner shrimp and snails. Otherwise, choose smaller community fish, which will give you more variety; clowns, gobies, small peaceful wrasses, etc..
