So I had an outbreak of Velvet and I am just about ready to move my fish from QT back to DT.

This is what I am thinking for timing/order:
Week #1 Two file fish, Valentini Puffer and One Spot Foxface (he's tiny 1 1/2 inches)
Week #2: Two clowns (the friendly ones -lol) and 3 small chalk bass (under an inch each)
Week #3: Ruby Longfin & Bluehead Wrasses
Week #4: Diamond butterfly (largest of my fish 3')
Week #5: Yellow Tang (he's tiny - under 2 inches)

Thoughts?
 
How large is the DT? Most fish seem to be small so you may be able to add more simultaneously. But otherwise the order looks good as long as those clowns are friendly... :) Mine boss everything else around.
 
Put the yellow tang, blue head wrasse, & clowns last. How big is your tank & do you crustaceans(crabs, shrimp), if so, the puffer & bluehead wrasse most likely eat them, good luck
