Your talking a very,very aggressive community of fish and would never work in a 55g.
The Dragon / Rockmover is a very cool and intresting fish on its own. I would sugest getting just one and leave it at that, They do get large and mean. Break up some rock and mix it in with the sand.
Enjoy.

I agree there is NO WAY to keep all of those fish in the 55g tank. I'm afraid you'll need to do some serious reworking of that list. It just won't work out.

That would be a great tank if it were large enough, but save yourself the money and havoc and reconsider your choices including purchasing a larger tank. A good rule of thumb to use is NOT the size of the fish at purchase but it's maximum length and size.
The good news is this, you can still have all of those fish just not in a 55g. We'll you can but it's not healthy for you or the fish, you financially & mentally & the fish physically. The other good news is that if you do deceide to get a larger tank, you can use the water in your 55g to start your new tank.
Good Luck!!
