I am currently in the process of upgrading my 20g to a red sea reefer 250 (55g). I was hoping to get some advise on my stocking list.

This is the list i had in mind:
2 oscillaris clownfish (wich i already have)
1 firefish
A goby with pistol shrimp
1-2 banggai cardinals
1 lownmower blenny
1 royal gramma
1 fairy/flasher wrasse
1 foxface?

Do you think this will work in my aquarium?
Some fun additions/changes would be greatly appreciated!

Foxface no they require 125 gallon or larger. Wrasse should be the first fish introduced though may cause some aggression if after. Clowns may go after Wrasse as well.

The wrasse first? I thought i would add it almost last because they are a little sensitive?

YEah, definitely do the wrasse <last>. Fish stocking should go from most peaceful to least peaceful.
