55 Gallon switching to 150 Gallon with sump.

I would like to know more about what fish would be ok and what is the safest way to add new fish and safely transport the fish I have now.

Current fish:
1- Photon Clownfish
1- Da Vinci Grade B Clownfish
1- Starry Blenny
1- Wheeler's Watchman Goby w/Pistol Shrimp
1- Juvenile Blonde Naso Tang
10- Peppermint Shrimp

I know that the Tang is going to be everyones first concern, and I understand the concern. I would like to add another Tang (Purple), possibly Bicolor Blenny, and then I'd like any suggestions to fish that have personality, community, or just are interesting to see. Thanks for any help!

Is a refugium hard to set up and maintain? I have heard that the are good for breeding the small foods that some fish require/enjoy.

What are good LED light recommendations for my tank? If LED isn't good, then what would be a good choice?

Would it be better to do a LRWFO in the 150 and divide the 150 into a 29-30 gallon reef with 25 gallon quarantine tank? A 150 reef tank would be beautiful with time and patience.

I've been dosing Reef Plus (as directed), Reef Iodine (as directed), Reef Fusion (as directed), Stability (daily), and 10% biweekly water changes. Any corrections would be appreciated.

I listen and take every opinion into account. I'm very new at this but I love to watch all of the life and new things in my tank. Thanks for your help in advance!
