Question Need stocking suggestions, Fish and Inverts

As some of you may know, I have started a 65 gal tank. Coral plans are for SPS dominant, with a few LPS and zoas. 80 gallons with the sump, and using Zeovit.

I am needing suggestions in regards to stocking the tank and in what order (if any) should I add them.

Currently the tank is pretty bare, diatoms receding and no coralline yet. All my parameters are good, and I've got a grasp on the chemistry.

Other than a few corals, the only other thing in the tank at this time is a Yellow Tail Damsel, that appears to be doing fine, showing no signs of ailment or ick. He gets fed once every 2 days only because I don't want to pollute the tank.

So what's next? What is suggested for CuC? How many? What should be avoided?

In regards to fish, I'd like a pair of True Perc's, and a Copperband. What about other fish? Obviously the tank size limits the fish size, so Tangs and Angels are out of the question... that's fine.

What are some good small fish for a 65? Any particular order in which I should add them?

I would like to have lots of fish, with lots of colours.

Hmmm... maybe I should upgrade.
