Anselth, a quick question, why the damsel? They are a real pain to remove once established especially with live rock. With live rock (if you put it in first) you won't need the damsel to cycle. But maybe you want one permanently in the tank? (remember, they do have bad raps as being very aggressive).

I, personally like pygmy angels, especially for a FOWLR tank. I've had both coral beauty's and lemon peel angels. Both make nice additions in my estimation (but only one in a tank at a time). I've never had anything other than mushrooms/polyps really, and they didn't bother them as I recall. Probably a hit or miss type of thing.

You can use a biowheel filter, but with your live sand/rock and skimmer, don't really need it (I've done it both ways). Currently, I do not use a power filter.

Bright lights are not really necessary for fish only tanks, so if you have no corals, you should be able to get by with lesser lights.

For denitrification purposes, most people, I think, will say that 3 inches of sand is, maybe just a little light. I've always heard 4 inches minimum. I have 5-6 inches in my tank.

I currently have a royal gramma and percula clown in my tank. The R.G., I've had about 3-4 years and the clown 6 or 7. They get along fine. I've no experience with a blenny.

Remember to go slow and take it easy. Don't get in too much of a hurry to add lots of fish.
