I'd pick up an established piece of live rock at one of our sponsors stores and let it ride! Maybe around 10 pounds. Your parameters sound pretty good. Especially since there is no live rock.
You mentioned the clown and damsel hide on their side. What do they hide in?

i agree, if your going full blown might as well just slowly setup a whole new bigger system. i was wondering the same thing why so they stay on seperate sides of the tank, yes some gobys make there tunnels and stick to it but clowns and damsels usually move around a tank. my comment on stressto clarify..... fish will shed there slime coats which makes them more prone to ich since they burrow in the skin easier. most reef safe meds just make the fish build up slim coats. just keep them fed watch for agression and take it slow
