PLEASE Stocking Help

[Gator0930]

I am going to do a Reef Savvy tank 400 gallons. I am ordering a Life Reef sump. The sump should be about 50 gallons. I am planning to do a ZeoVit system, Life Reef skimmer, carbon, GFO. I will also be doing a full APEX system.

I want to get everyones opinion on stocking capacity, interactions, and order.

First fish: lawnmower blennies. ZeoVit requires herbivore and these are the only hardy herbivores I can really think of

Angels: set of 3 Watanabei AND Bellus. I think the tank is big enough for a set of 3 each
Anthias: set of 5 each Princess and Barletts
Tangs: Whitetail Bristletooth, Powder Blue, Orange Shoulder, AND MAYBE a small school (3-5) Yellow
Dottyback: 1x Splendid as they do best with only one per system CORRECT?
Triggers: 1 pair each of Blue Throat and Red Tail

Fairy Wrasse
One each: splendid pintail, Scotts (maybe 2), pink margin, Exquisite (maybe 2), Labouti, Lineatus, and Sunset

Leopard Wrasse
Small school 3-5 each: Kuiters Leaopard, blue star leopard, black leopard

CUC
Snails
Fighting Conchs
Shrimp

I will be doing a build thread once we lock down details and order the tank.

I will likely add Jawfish and Gobies as well.

I have always put tangs in early as part of my landscaping crew. Depending on your gobies you might want to wait until some life gets into the sand otherwise they will rely on you completely for food. Beyond that it is kind of a rock / paper / scissors exercise! Good luck - can't wait to see this come to life.
