Presently I have about 20 lbs of lr and 80lbs of ls. I try to add few lbs of lr and some base rock at the same time. Its work in progress. What your saying is to remove the bio balls when there is a sufficent amount of lr? Im new to this type of filtration. The last sw tank I had wasa 55 gal 15 yrs ago and things have certainly changed.

In my opinion no, especially the naso, they get huge fast.

The live rock will become your biological filter along with your sandbed. if you leave the bioballs they will hold nitates.
once you get the right amount of LR all you need is a good skimmer in your sump.
I have a G2 on my sump for my 75 works great

not mine! I remembered that tang when it was posted. It was brought to the owners attention (his tank was too small as well).

do you plan on having inverts like.. skunk shrimp and shrimp for tht fact?
if not look into hawk fish.. specially a flame or a long nose.. both very nice
lookinto angels as well. some nnice ones for tht size tank could include
flame angel
coral beauty
ebli angel (sp?)
lemonpeel
black angel
one one per tank though
then 2 clowns and maybe a school of 2-3 chromis if there is room
sailfin
angel (dwarf species)
hakwfish (if no shrimp)
2 clowns
2-3 chromis
it is alot b ut keep an eye on your levels with a good test kit and you should be good
btw if you plan on keeping tht tang then i would say dithc the chromis give him some more room and/or keep the stock levels to a minimum
