I would really stock your tank for what size you have now. Stocking for a future bigger tank will cause problems immediately. You can always get the fish or invert once you have upgraded.

Plus it is very hard to move livestock from one established tank to a new just cycled tank.

Why not just save your money and get that bigger tank sooner
