a 45 gallon isnt going to allow for mutch fish you can have 9"s of "ADULT" fish in that tank. IMO and many others 1 tang wouldnt work in anything less than a 75 and if you want 2 I would have to say a 100+. As for SPS corals, Clams, Anemones and some LPS you will need metal halide lights. For any other coral that dosnt need as mutch light you can use VHO, PC, or HO. This hobby isnt freshwater you wont have as many fish and you will have more money wrapped up in what you have.

You wouuld have to research that. There are many aglea eating things you can buy but you may not like this vs's that. It is really up to you what you put in there cause some stuff will be more eye apealing to you than other stuff that other ppl like.
