Stocking ideas for a BioCube?

[FireUnderwater]

I picked up a 32G BioCube a little over 2 weeks ago, and am slowly starting to pick out potential stocking for livestock to add when my tank is cycled. After the tank is established (4-5 months), I am planning on having some corals, and a rainbow bubble tip anemone. So I would prefer for the fish to be reef-safe. Tank additions are planned to be spread out over the course of a year.
This is the stocking list I have come up with so far, so my question is would this work? And if it does work, what would be the recommended order for stocking? I've heard wrasses/clowns are more aggressive so I was thinking of adding those last.

Stocking List 1
1. Mated Clownfish pair (I like the looks of storms/gladiator clowns)
2. Watchman Goby/Pistol Shrimp
3. Royal Gramma
4. Pink-Streaked/Six-Line Wrasse

I own a BioCube 16, and a BioCube 32 (and other tanks ranging up to 150 gallons.) My best advice is to pick carefully, because four (4) fish will likely max-out your BioCube 32. (Not so much due to bio-load, but due to the fact that if your fish don't get along, there is not much room for them to stay away from each other.) I think a lot of people might advise against the 6-Line; might be a killer in there. The two Storms you mentioned, or other designer Clowns, seem like a good choice. Best wishes for your tank! :)

Eventually you can do a dragonette mandarin. I like a blue chromis to get it that reef feel. Engineer gobbies look like eels when the get big, but they like to move sand around.

Sharing my reply from another thread. I've had a Biocube 32 for 5 years now. +1 to JumboShrimp's quantity comment - in my experience, anything more than 4 fish with any type of aggressive tendencies, or any type of size, would feel crammed. Right now I have an Ocellaris (had since startup), Flame Hawk, and a tailspot blenny. I just lost my possum wrasse 2 weeks ago. Those 4 were together 3 years and were perfectly happy. Those were the 4 best combo (personality, visibility) that I've had.

I've also had a clown goby, purple firefish, pygmy angel, and court jester goby. They all worked out OK.
