My 72 Bow Front

I am seeking your opinions on what you would consider a near perfect set up for a 72.

I have a huge wet dry system that was givin to me buy a close friend I think it is good for a tank well over a hundred gallons. It barely fits in the cabnit under my tank. He also gave me the light fixtures and bulbs (autinic) I beleive. I have some live rock that doesnt look to good at this point and also about 3 inches of sand. When it was givin back all it had in it was a tomato clown.

I just did a major cleaning to try to re set up a tank and I have more to go so this is definalty for future reference. I would like to know what I can do to take advatage of this huge wet dry. It does have bio balls in it at this point.

I would also like to know if I could get away with three fish such as a Kole Tang, Coral Beauty, and maybe a Pakistan butterfly with the supporting clean up crew? Eventually i want to create a reef with those fish or similar unless it is too much fish for my tank.

I have kept an all aggresive tank for quite along time but never a reef system. Where I had two canisters and just did major water changes every month or so and the fish thrived.

Any information you can pass my way I would certainly appreciate it.
