Sounds like a lot to me...  10 in a 45G... 3 of them wrasses, and most likely an angel that will be a mini poop machine...   I feel 5 in my 30G is too many (2clowns, 1 Coral Beauty, 1 6line Wrasse, 1 Twinspot hogfish)...  minimal inverts 6-7 snails, no crabs, 1 cleaner shrimp..  
 
What was the skimmer again?  That might be the difference, as I am running skimmerless right now.
