Does your tank have a sump or skimmer?
It should be fine.

Indecision may or may not be my problem.
Depends on the bio-load capacity of the tank, if you have a big sump and refugium working on the tank then maybe one or two more fish depending on size. If you're using a Hang-on back filter, you should probably slow down on fish for a while until you figure out how your system behaves as your QT fish are added.

Your tank should be able to handle those fish without issue.

My Aqueon 65 RR with a lot of rock and a 20L sump has the following to give you some reference:
2x Ocellaris Clownfish - Amphiprion ocellaris
1x Bluestreak Cleaner Wrasse - Labroides dimidiatus
1x Bi-Colour Blenny - Escenius bicolor
1x Bristletooth Tomini Tang - Ctenochaetus tominiensis
1x Lubbock's Fairy Wrasse - Cirrhilabrus lubbocki
1x Firefish - Nemateleotris magnifica
1x Blue-Sided Wrasse - Cirrhilabrus cyanopleura (I believe)
The tank has zero issues between everyone and the bio-load is managed by a refugium (about 1/3 the sump) + Icecap K2-120 skimmer. They get a cube of small grade mysis every other day, a pinch of PE 2mm pellets daily and I put in a 1/2 sheet of nori twice a week, which oddly the cleaner wrasse goes nuts over.
Hope that gives a good picture of what can be housed.

I have 7 fish (2 mocha clowns, 2 yellow tail damsels, 1 tailspot blenny, 1 starry blenny, 1 royal gramma) in a 60g cube with no issues at all... Plus 30+ corals in a mixed reef: Rainbow bubble tip anemone, SPS, LPS, softies.
I plan on adding 1-2 more fish... you're fine.

Tank was taken down like a year ago. Only a tomini tang, single clown and cleaner wrasse made the trip out of it. Lost a c.cyanopleura and the other clown for some reason post-move.
Tank had like 30lbs of marco rock in it, something I wouldn't do again. Too much rock and with any type of acro growth would have been little open swimming area.
