    Oops. Take one vote away from two clowns. My mind was working backwards. While I think a pair of clowns look great in every tank, I also think you should add them last, because they can become quite the bullys. I would add whichever tang in your stocking plan is known to be the most timid. Always work your way through your stocking from least to most timid fish.

    Out of those... Regal. The yellow should be added closer to last. They are aggressive. Also, that Naso gets huge, something like 18".

    I would go. Yellow then Naso then Regal. Just because of aggression issues put the lower aggressors in first
