(Is there a Way to get it cheaper than this)

****Any Concerns or Comment Welcome****
 
I recommend you only go with 1 MaxiJet 1200. I have 1 in my 56 gal and it really moves the water around. When I feed them the food swirls around for awhile before dropping to the bottom. My clowns like to swim over and take a ride.

For the heater 100w should do it. I have a 200watt in my tank it it keeps the temp stable.
 
Just a couple of observations really mate, certainly not concerns...

1) No need for the filter, you would have ample live rock for filtration.
2) Dont waste money with live sand, buy aragoite sugar grade sand and get, if possible, some live sand from a fellow reefer or lfs
3) Lighting - I would be more tempted to go for metal halide lighting and you would have no lighting issues in the future
4) Clowns may be an issue, you do sometimes get it when mixing different types..

I think its looking like a good startup plan mate
