I would add the tang or the angelfish first as they are generally shy at first. I know my Majestic was. Then the Clownfish followed by the two triggerfish either at the same time or separately.

That would definately be a good idea. I'd also make the two triggers the smallest fish if possible when added.

Thanks for the info, I was looking at getting the triggers very small.

It's been about 3 years since I last had a tank. Space constraints limited me to nothing.

Would I be able to add a panther grouper as well or is that pushing it too much?

I'd skip the panther. They get huge and eat a ton. I think the list you have now is pretty nice. I think once you get everything situated, the fish and color combos are going to be very good and everything will be ok.
