Seeing how Steve's thread is closed I thought I would reach out for some stocking help.
My tank is 80x20x20 (aprox 140G) with about 55G in the sump/fuge. Specs are in my signature.

I have been slowly restocking my DT after nearly 5 months fallow (long story) I am about to empty my last QT tank today so I can go buy some more fish....

Currently In QT: (Going into the DT today)
Powder Brown Tang
Purple Firefish
Gladiator Clownfish

In The DT already:
Leopard Wrasses(Macropharyngodon Ornatus)
Line Spot Wrasse
Bangaii Cardinal
Lyretail Anthai
Red Fin Japanese Waspfish
Green Mandarin

My wish List
1x Copperband Butterflyfish
1x Clownfish
1x Yellow or Purple or Kole Tang
3-5 Randell's anthias or Ignitus or Carberryi
1 x Borb Anthias
1 x Flame hawk or Long nosed hawk
1 x tailspot or Midas Blenny

1x McCosker's Flasher Wrasse
1x Rhomboidalis Fairy Wrasse
1x Exquisite Fairy Wrasse
1 xLineatus Fairy Wrasse
1 x Pink-Streaked Wrasse


That list is 23ish fish.... I think that might be quite a few too many...

Anyway that's the wish list, I have been going slow and QTing everything so I am sure I can check the list before my stocking gets out of hand....

It is really nice to have fish in the DT again after so long fallow!

Some guidance on compatibility would be great and might help ween the list down!
 
The only advice I can give from experience is....when adding Tangs, do it all at once, if you allow 1 to establish dominance it will wreak havoc on the others you add later, or since you are putting in the PB Tang today, IF I were going to add more tangs, I would add 3 more together, this would stop the established Tang from being able to isolate any 1 of the newcomers to the point of death.
 
That is a lot of fish, but except for the tangs they are small.
The CBB can be tricky.
I would get the most desired fish first, add them slowly, and be ready to stop adding fish at any point.
Of course you can always just build another tank .......
