preparing to order fish for quarantine and need some help with stocking order for my new 400.

Here is my planned stocking list:

Watanabei angel
5 royal gramma
2-3 borbonius anthias
randall’s goby
Pair clowns (occ or percs)
flame hawk
5-7 Cirrhilabrus wrasse of different species
Pacific redstripe hogfish
yellow tang
purple tang
3-5 starcki damsels
Powder blue tang
Bluejaw trigger pair
Sargassum trigger
 
What size is the qt?

What species of Cirrhilabrus?

Powder blue tang last.

Yellow and purple tang simultaneously toward the end.

Hogfish at the end.

Triggers toward the end as well. The order of the others doesn't really matter too much.

I have a QT room with 2 separate 20Longs and a 90gallon rack system that has 12 compartments

I have a c. Luteovittalus ready for the display now. Thinking of a trio of flame wrasses, a trio of exquisites, and a laboutei.
 
Is there any specific reason you are doing trios on the flame and exquisites? Males will display towards males of other species. Females almost always transition into males. And males of the same species are quite intolerant of one another.

You are correct, it's been quite awhile since I kept many wrasses. I will stick to single species specimens of wrasses
