150 gal inhabitants question

All:
We have purchased a new 150 gal tank and are narrowing down our selection of fish we want to add over time (as it establishes we'll be adding appropriate fish).
What we are thinking is:
1 Hippo Tang
4 Clowns
1 Dogface Puffer
1 Goby (sp?)
2 Cleaner Shrimp
That's about it for now.
I'm wondering if the 150 would be a suitable home for those fish. If not, we'll have to modify our list a bit. )
Thoughts?

You might have a problem with the puffer as it may try to eat your shrimp and depending on what type of clowns 4 might not be the best choice as they mature they may pair up and kill the others.

It will eat your shrimp and any other little crustaceans you get. It should be fine if you dont have any inverts. Althought ive seen puffers eat small fish as well but not always likely to happen.
