Help me choose

I am looking for some fish for my new tank, it's a 40 breeder SPS dominated tank. I am looking for active fish, no clown fish. The tank is about two months old and I won't be adding any fish for another two months because I made the mistake of putting fish without qting them and they had ich and black ich. Right now I have a yasha goby sitting in my qt tank and a starry blenny in a smaller reef tank that I may put in the new tank.

So far I would like to get:
Centropyge eibli
Midas blenny
Some kind of anthias (my LFS can get them when they are less than an inch long and feed them all day long)

Let me know what you guys would suggest me putting or not putting in my tank?

Thanks in advance

The few people I know who have had Eiblis experienced much coral nipping. I personally have no experience with them but think they are pretty fish. :)

The midas blenny is a good choice, IMO. They have great personalities and are pretty active.

I would add a couple of fairy wrasses. I have a pair of Lubbocks and they offer a great splash of color and are active until just before lights out.

Some anthias need a bit more room than you have (if you are keeping multiples). I will defer to the anthias folks on here for suggestions.
 
I know a lot of people like wrasses but, I just don't like the way they look. I had a six line wrasse and a scarlet wrasse and both were little PITA.
