beginner Sal****er tank setup
Yep, once you know how to take care of them that is.
They don't chase down the other corals and kill them. All
you have to do is give them enough space that they don't
reach out and touch someone.
If a sps coral gets an infection, you can just cut the
infected part off. Can't do that with a fish.
Want more corals, just cut the ones you have in half.
Can't do that with the fish.

Good, I suggest that you start with a FO tank, save money for the
lighting system and then go to reef.
I didn't see any references to lighting, if you did, what kind of
lighting are you going to use?
Then, is there the issue of inverts and their poor tolerance to
chlorine. Reef keeping isn't easy and a good RO filter can save you a
lot on the long run when filtering destilled water.
Do yourself a favor, start with fish only (FO) then take a step to
FWLR. Once you've mastered the sal****er issues it will be easy to
step into corals. They are expensive and hard to maintain.
Maintaining corals-only tank with no fish is actually easier than FO.
