I have a 48" long SW tank which has finished cycling with live rock ( not enough to be the main bio filter thou) and I am hoping to purchase my first fish next week. I am running an external filter with Bio filter media, a protein skimmer, an internal filter with carbon and a powerhead for circulation.
Here is a list of the fish I really like, could someone please advise me as to how many of these fish I could have, which make the best tank mates and which order they recommend I introduce them. I will be getting all my fish direct from a wholesaler ( I am fortunate to work in an aquatic centre, but we don't deal in marines, only freshwater ) and all will be quarantined before I introduce them to the main tank.



Clown perculas ( two small ones? )
Royal Gramma
Banggai Cardinal
Dwarf Angel (Bicolour, fireball or Flame?)
Firefish
Humbug Damsel (Or would he be too aggressive for the Cardinal?)

Also another quick question, are juvenile blood shrimp pink in colour and only become 'blood' red when they mature, or have I been ripped off? lol
