Hey everybody
I was planning out my stocking for my 40 breeder. Right now I have:

-2 clowns
-diamond goby
-2 banggai cardinals

I am thinking of adding these

-yellow assessor
-kamohara blenny
-MAYBE Coral Beauty Angelfish
Do you guys think this is a good list?

Thanks
 
I think you can do all of those. How long has the tank been up? I'd probably add only one per month. 8 fish in a 40B will definitely require a mature tank.
 
Those should be fine.
 
Ok, thanks for the replies!
And yeah, I'm not adding them all at the same time. Maybe 1 every month or so.
Tank has been set up since July
 
I'd avoid the coral beauty. They are touchy and 40g is right at the low end. Plus you may have problems keeping corals with them. If you go with it anyway make sure you get one that has been at a LFS for a while and is eating good.

I'm setting up my QT system now and I plan on having:

2 clowns (already have)
Midas Blenny
Flasher wrasse
Royal Gramma
Shrimp and Goby pair - this is a maybe
