I do not think your anywhere near cycled. I would add the live rock and then watch your levels sky rocket. You will see 3 different algae outbreaks...
If you let us know more on what you plan on keeping and your budget we can help point you in the correct direction.
Sorry I missed the entire freshwater part so the size of the tank may just be fine.
I don't want to upset you here but if your sharks are 8-10 inches I believe a 72 gal will be a little small for them. As far as cleaning it makes...
I usually go with a mix of 10k's and true actinic. I have never been much of a fan of 50/50's when you do not have to use them. I would get 1/2 10k...
Welcome. I actually have a 46 gal FOWR working just fine for 1yr on only a canister filter. I took everything out of it and put in carbon and live...

Nice work. Congrats
That also scares me a bit. I had a few red ones and green ones that the lfs told me were little anemone's all on one rock. After putting in my tank...
Welcome to the site and a hobby that never gets boring :-). So that we can help with future questions you may have it would be a good idea to update...
