make sure you have a good enough filter. The one your tank came with will not be enough to handle that bioload, esp since all those fish are messy carnivorous eaters. They will also most likely not accept flake, which means live or freeze dried food will be of necessity. You might be able to get away with pellets, though. aquabid.com is a great place to find all those fish for relatively cheap

don't waste your money on CRS, just get good ol' ghost shrimp, gut load them in their own tank for a couple days and then give them to your stock. Also, some fish are attracted to the red coloration of their prey, so fill them with blood worms or red flake food and while it is in their gut (you'll be able to see it), stick them in the tank.
