Hello, I've made a big list of some of the fish/inverts that I wanna build up to. This will be my first saltwater aquarium. I didn't really research them, just looked around the fish store. Can someone let me know if these are compatible? Like if something would eat one another

fish:
clownfish
foxface rabbitfish
scopas/yellow tang
kole tang
squareback anthias
lawnmower blenny
yellow watchman goby
fairy wrasse
chalk bass
mandarin goby (couple months later)
hawkfish
gramma fish
mystery wrasse
filefish
marine betta/comet

inverts:
trochus snails
cleaner shrimps
fighting conch
pompom crabs
tuxedo urchins
turbo snails

I think you have a pretty good lineup there, I would stay away from the betta though. Otherwise my only real comment is to give things at least 6-8 months to establish before you toss in the mandarin, ideally a year, unless you're cultivating pods or going the captive-bred route. A refugium of rubble in your sump would be a good idea if you can.

Why avoid a betta? I think theyre fascinating and gorgeous.
