big.

a 180 would be good for a while, and a good filteration is in order. but for life a 240 would do.

 

[inth3shadows]

a quick thought on that would be 220 or bigger.

240 sounds good, the bigger the better. If you remove from the list some of the more aggressive fish, you might be able to go smaller with adequate water changes and filtration

well I'm not planning on anything smaller than a 220

Then, you should be good. Get the biggest you can fit...

240 minimum. If you're going big, get the largest so you have the capacity to add more stock down the road.
