Default Tide pool inspired Nano Stocklist thoughts?

Heho kermit the frog here...

So I started a new nano tank a few weeks ago.
I am starting to think of what types of corals and critters to stock it with.

I was in the La Jolla tide pools last october with my husband (San Diego)
I decided I wanted my next tank to be tide pool inspired. Where better to start than a nano?

My ideal stockist.

Inverts:
cleaner shrimp
fire shrimp
2-3 sexy shrimp
small urchin
cleanup crew.

Fish:
1 Hector's Goby
1 Firefish
1 goby/pistol shrimp pair
1 pygmy angel fish.

I adore Bangaii cardinalfish but alas! they get too big.

I've had problems with ocellaris clowns going nasty on me in the past.

If there are other suggestions to make my tank more tidepool like that'd be awesome. I've seen quite a few scooter blennys in tide pools but I think he might have trouble in a small system.
