If the tank has just finished its cycle, I would hold off on the shrimp & brittle star. First fish should be the clown. Wait a few weeks then add other fish. weeks apart. No special lighting required with posted list.

I second that, and as far as the shrimp, I'd personally skip the coral banded shrimp and go for a cleaner. Coral banded shrimp are a bit too aggressive and will likely chase down your fish from time to time, and could be a problem if you want to add other types of shrimp in the future.
