Default What equipment would you buy for a 180g? Help me choose mine!

I need your help!

I’m building a 180g peninsula and it’s my first ever aquarium. And I need some help choosing the correct equipment.
Things to note, I need as silent as possible operation. The tank is right next to my office desk and in the same room as the home theatre system.

So what should I buy? Here is what I have so far (feel free to comment if something I have listed is bad/good):

Lighting - 6' coralife aqualight pro 150 watt with new 13K geismann's
Skimmer – AMS G4 or maybe G5 (I want something with high bio load rating)
Return pump – MAG18
SW mix pump/water change – MAG2.5
ATO pump – MAG1
ATO setup – Aquahub.com (float + dc power adapter – will be connected to apex breakout box)
Controller – Neptune System Apex with tunze power head cables, breakout box (for ATO), ph + temp+ orp probe
Powerheads - 2 tunze 6105 – will be controlled by apex controller
Heaters – 3 Visitherm Heater - 250 Watt ( 1 for SW mix, 2 for sump)
Automatic fish feeder - ????

btw if anyone has some of these things for sale, feel free to pm me with a price.
also if im missing something, feel free to call me a noob and tell me what i forgot.
