I have a 50 gallon with 2 1/2 inch LS bed and 60 lbs of LR. My tank has been setup for 2 months and my current stock list is:
1 Serpent Starfish
1 Emerald Crab
10 Turbo Snails
10 Blue Leg Hermits
2 Green Chromis
1 Maroon Clown
2 Feather Dusters
I would like to add:
1 Yellow watchman Goby
1 Royal Gramma
1 Coral Beauty
My question is.......
Is it ok for me to add these fish? I have researched them and it seems like a good fit but I figured it wise to run it by yall. Also, What are some alternative fish choices I could consider?
Please and Thank You!!!

If you are new to saltwater aquariums, I have heard that Percula Clownfish are really good beginner fish. I would also wait around 7 months before adding the Coral Beauty Angel.

If you get an Maroon Clown, I would only get 1 or 2 because they can sometimes be aggressive towards each other.

Thanks for your replies. Perhaps I think my wording in my initial post may have been a little confusing.
I already have:
1 Serpent Starfish
1 Emerald Crab
10 Turbo Snails
10 Blue Leg Hermits
2 Green Chromis
1 Maroon Clown
2 Feather Dusters
I would like to add:
1 Yellow watchman Goby
1 Royal Gramma
1 Coral Beauty
In regards to the dwarf angel I will definately be adding him last as he will be the most aggresive of my tank inhabitants.

Thanks Travis. Any particular reason you would choose the flame or is it preference?
I also plan on adding some beginner corals such as zoos and shrooms in due time.

That's just preference, they are brighter, but they are also more aggressive and more likely to pick at coral then the coral beauty.
