Order of Adding Fish to a Tank

Reefing newb
In what order should I introduce the following list of fish to a 46g reef tank?

Six line wrasse
Strawberry Basslet (Orchid Dottyback)
Pair of clowns (probably false perc or ocellaris)
Midas Blenny
Flame Angel
 
I would add the pair of clowns and the Angelfish last.

I'd like to put the Midas Blenny in first, if I can find one! I've got the dottyback and six-line in a QT now. Although the dottyback isn't hurting the six-line, he definitely has claimed the upper hand and keeps the six-line confined to one small area of the tank. So, it's looking like I should put the six-line in before the dottyback to give him a bit of first advantage in the DT. Still think I should put the clowns after the dottyback?
 
Unfortunately, every fish you picked except the blenny tends to be territorial. So there are a lot of fish on the list that *should* be put in last! :)
