It looks good to me, however, I'm not sure if the two blennies will get along, as I have no experience with them. Hopefully, someone else will know if they will be ok together or not.

I would always go for a pair of clowns. They look so much better and there behaviour is way more interesting.
Also, CBB's are pretty hard to keep alive.

96" long and only 2 tangs? Ah man i would probably put 5 in there with some large angels too

I have a bicolor and a Midas together. The two are best of "friends" and the bicolor has never nipped.

The Midas was added much later than the bicolor .. but they never had any "issues" at all.

IMHO, I think fish are sort of like people in that there may be some "representative" behaviors, but not all same genus/same species fishes act the same at all times. For example: I'm a white, 43 year old male and I HATE Budweiser and/or Bud Light. But I know a whole lot of white, 43 year old males that love either or both of them. Sometimes you just never know until you try. If there is a history with those types of fishes not gettng along, then you keep a watchful eye out and remove any offenders before the get out of control.
