Hey everyone. I currently have a 54 gallon corner tank I just started over. Currently I have no fish in the tank but would like the fish listed below. In what order should I introduce them? Any other fish recommend well also be considered.

Longnose Hawk
Midas Blenny
Mystery Wrasse
Blue Watchman Goby
Blue Reef Chromis or Damels
 
I would do
Goby
Blenny
hawkfish
Chronic or damsel
 
Hawkfish would probably be the best mix for that stocking.
 
I would skip the Mystery Wrasse (they won't let you add any more wrasses and will likely eat any shrimp you want), Go with a Halichoeres Wrasse (ie Melanurus, Yellow, Red Lined, H.Claudia Christmas Wrasse).

Royal Gramma would be better as well as it is more likely to stick up for itself if another fish gets pushy. Many Chromis have Uronema disease these days and pick each other off more often than not. Not a fan of Damsels in small to medium community tanks either as they are too much of a mixed bag for temperament regardless of variety.
