Before anyone gets up in arms, I do know the dangers of having these fish with the other inhabitants. I have been in the hobby for 5+ years and have kept these fish before. What happened was, the money cowrie, xenia, and mushrooms came as hitchhikers on my rock. After all was cycled and fish were added, I assumed they would be toast. To my surprise, they ignored everything.
From then on, my tank has been a testing ground. I first tried adding a softball sized strawberry hermit due to its aggressiveness. It was fine (although later was removed because it was the only thing that messed with the inverts). I added an urchin and no one even flinched. I since added several free frags I obtained from reef club friends and a few more inverts all which have survived nicely. Just goes to show you that you can never tell what is going to happen.

It's not the aggressiveness you should be worried about.
It's the fact that you have those fish in a 72gal bowfront, which isn't suitable for even one of them, let alone all of them.

Yup, including the fact that you still never can tell what is going to happen.
