I am upgrading my aquarium to a Waterbox Marine X 90.3 (224L), I was thinking of having mostly soft corals, I will be transferring my current fish, invertebrate to it.
2x Ocellaris clownfish (orange)
1x Lawnmower blenny
1x yellow foot hermit crab
2x peppermint shrimp
2x Nassarius Snails

What I want to add in addition to them are;
2x Ocellaris clownfish (black)
2x turbo snails
2x blue/green chromis
2x peppermint shrimp
1x yellow foot hermit crab

I was also thinking about maybe adding a sand sifting starfish or a short spine urchin.

Would this be too much for the aquarium?
Any I should change or add suggestions welcome.
 
Five fish would be fine. But, two pairs of clownfish won't.
Why is this, I seen bunch of clownfish is aquarian before. Maybe two different kinds is problem. At first I had two different kinds and the bigger one jump out and I got another one like the first and they seem to be a mated pair.

That's one pair.. totally fine if they are male and female.
OP is asking about having 2 pairs (4) clowns in one tank, generally not a great situation for the clowns.

the only time you get away with a ton of clowns is if there is 1 female and a bunch of smaller males. If you have 2 pairs most likely you will get 2 sets of male and female. 2 females in a tank that small, you will end up with 1 female
