I could use some help with deciding in what order to add the fish that I want to put into my 140G with the least amount of squabbling. I'm thinking this is how I want to group them. Each group will first go into quarantine, and then moved over to the DT. I'm not looking for feedback on being reef-safe, just looking for concerns about possible fighting given the order of introduction.

First
2 bonded Bangaii cardinals
1 firefish

Second
1 midas blenny
1 red head solon fairy wrasse

Third
moorish idol

Fourth
Flame Angel
Coral Beauty Angel

Fifth
Powder blue tang

Last
2 snowflake clowns that a RBTA will be hosting (tank should be mature enough for the RBTA by then)

See anything that needs to be rearranged as far as order?
 
looks good to me, id stay away from the idol though, they have a poor track record

Thanks,
I think their track record has improved in the last couple of years. I'm not saying great, but they have a fair chance now. I would only get one if it was already eating. A number of reef people in my local community have had a lot of luck with them and they are available through very reputable LFS, but I know they are iffy, but very worthy of a shot.
 
i have kept them and they did great for a few months, then all of a suddon they stopped eating and then died, but thats just my one try with them, u may have better luck.

I would have to disagree with this. They are ich magnets, like many tangs, but if quarantined and treated, they are no more difficult then any other tang to keep.
