Default Stocking list for 270g reef

So the 270 is online and ready for new fish. This tank will be a reef tank.
Current stocking:
1 regal tang
1 cleaner wrasse
1 copper banded butterfly
1 six- line wrasse ( may be evicted)
3 blue green chromis
3 clowns

Planned additions:
Powder blue tang or Achilles tang if the right one comes along
Sailfin tang
2 naso tangs
Possibly a couple schooling banner fish

How does the list look any red flags? Will I be over stocked

i wouldn't do 2 nasos - they can get over a foot long each.
I personally wouldn't double up on any same species of tangs as you could be asking for trouble.

It's a lot of fish but you should be ok. If you are looking to be sps dominant its also a lot of nutrients to export.

I would also avoid the 2 naso's there are other tags that are better in pairs than naso's

The six line will be for certain removed due to aggression toward the cleaner wrasse. Unless I figure out sps soon it won't be sps dominant. More likely Lps and zoa mix with at least one clam. I will reconsider the pair of naso tangs. Any thoughts or experiences with schooling banner fish
