Stocking?

Let start with the fish I currently have.

4 purple dartfish 3" each
1 yellow tang 2.5"
1 deep sea chromis 2.5" (he seems to be the bully of the tank)
1 white lined combtoothed blenny 2"
1 orange striped prawn goby 2.5"
2 ocellaris clowns 1" each
1 Carpenter's Flasher Wrasse 3"
among many other inverts

Fish I would like to add:
3 ignitus anthias
1-2 green mandarin
1 angel (potters, flame, or Bellus)

I have a 140G 48"x24"x27", my reef creations 36" bio sump, avast marine vibe running zeovit, skimz sk222, 2x mp 40's and 1 maxspect gyre xf150, brs deluxe reactor running rox carbon, Reef genesis renew running 2 gallons a day water changes, return pump is a gold snapper/dart with a manifold. Lights are radions but I don't think that matters. I want to add a 40G breeder for a refugium for an offset light cycle and pod creation. I am a first time user of zeovit and am kind of in awe but it seems like stocking limits are greatly increased.

The tank has been running since October, 5 months total. Algae, except for bubble algae has completely receded. Nitrates are 0 per my red sea kit. I still have some phosphate which I think is leaching from my old rock and maybe as well because I like to overfeed.(2 cubes a day mix of misis,worms,krill,cyclops) Corals are fine except for a frogspawn that I think was getting too much flow. (put it in the back seems to be recovering.

My thought was get the refugium running and then add the mandarin, 1 month and anthias, angel last.

Thoughts recommendations comments in general anything are welcome.
Thank you for your time.
