Default What came first, the fish or the coral?

Well it's been 2 months today and the tank parameters look good. Now I have the itch to get this 190g stocked. Right now it's LR, 6 fire fish, 1 clown and a coral beauty. I don't remember how my stocking order went on my last tank, as it was shut down about 5 years ago. Do most of you guys put in corals first or get the nicer fish first? I know I had put in LPS, shruums, and zoo's before the SPS, and the male scribbled angel was my last fish, but I don't remember the between. I was thinking of grabbing an Achillies and a blue tang at the same time (is it to early for the tank?), maybe a sail fin a bit smaller (all fish will be 3-4 inches), then working on filling coral, then more fish. Any advise, the tank is looking way to plain and it is driving me nuts? Will having fish in first cause more coral nipping when new ones come get placed in the tank?
Thanks,
