the number of fish is not a problem, but from what i have read becareful with two watchmen gobys. shrimp do not add to the bio load so you could get more than one.

Make sure the tank is established before you get the scooter blenny.

Although I'm no expert, I'm pretty sure that you might want to wait several months rather than weeks before adding the blenny just to ensure that there is enough microfauna for it to eat. also be sure to space your fish out. You should really only add one or two a month. Believe me, I added a bunch of fish at one time before and ended up losing a coral beauty angel and tomato clown. That was a lot of money that got flushed down the toilet (literally
)
GOOD LUCK!!
