1) Yes, liverocks will go into the tank right from the start during cycling. The sand should go in as well if you are opting for a sand bed.
2) Skimmer can go in after cycling. 3) Yes, they should be in together with the liverocks and running from day 1. 4) In general, take a good look at the rock and look out for pests like aiptasia or large crabs(might harm fish). Rocks with pests on them should be avoided. You can also smell the rock and avoid those that have a rotten egg smell or are very smelly in general. On the other hand, it's good to pick pieces with good coralline algae growth. I would opt for odd shaped rocks as well as they would be easier to stack than round, boulder like ones. You can pick some flat pieces to make caves and overhands in your rock work. I usually try to visualize how the pieces can come together when I pick my rocks.

Tunze Turbelle Nanostream 6015(1800L/H) or 6025 (2800L/H).
Will the 1800L/H be enough? |

The Nanostream 6015(1800l/hr) should be enough for your tank size.
