3 Blue Reef or Blue Green Chromis
Inverts:
Blue-Legged Hermits
some Nudibranchs
Flame Scallop
2 Cleaner Shrimp

Cerith Snails
StarFish!!!here is some that I Like,

seems a bit high, Achilles tang need around 100gal or so.
Also, Flame scallops are hard to keep, they respond very quickly to poor water conditions and are rather intolerant of high nitrAtes.
edit
Nassarius Snail and trochus are both good

Tangs are a no no in a new tank, give it time to mature first. As stated an Achilles needs a large tank, and they are a very difficult fish to find and keep healthy. Definately not a beginner fish. As well hippo tangs can grow to 12-18"...consider a tang in the bristletooth family instead. Such as a Kole or Tomini tang.
Nudibranchs are diet specific, all of them will die in a home aquarium eventually. Most have specific needs we cannot give them.
Linckia stars are another no no in a new tank, and are also not recommended for new hobbyists. Give the tank a year or so to mature, and yourself time to learn how to control it's parameters. The other starfish you mentioned are not reef safe, they will eat corals. If you really want a starfish go with a serpent star, although you will rarely see it. I keep a sand perch in a semi-aggressive tank, he is my most agressive fish at feeding time and with conspecifics{same body shape}. He is red/white striped, so if this fish is the one you are talking about, consider what I have said. The name "blenny" attached to this fish is a misnomer.
The red corris wrasse is also not a reef safe fish, it can and most likely will eat inverts.
The flame angel can also pick at corals, you have a 50/50 chance with this fish in a reef.
I also would not recommend a Christmas tree worm rock to you. They again should not be in a new tank, and they most often come in the coral Porites{not a rock} which needs high lighting. They need feedings of live phytoplankton.

thanks for the info but i was wondering if you would still call it a fowlr if i have a couple corals but not a reef?

Once you have corals it's a reef.
