Yes,your fish selection/my fish are actually very compatible.Clownfish pairs have a very small territory and only defend that territory in a tank.Mine established their territory in the lower left corner of the tank.They are also open water feeders.Mandarins as you know just cruise along the rocks picking off pods.So there won't be any food/dominance issues between the 2 types of fish.Firefish are open water swimmers,never really establishing a territory in the rock/aquascape of the tank.So IMO,the 3 different species of fish should be compatible.
For corals,I only keep stoney corals with the exception of Xenia.IMO,Xenia usually does best in a mature tank with nutrients.Best to wait at least 4 months before you decide to start keeping them.If possible,try to get some from a local reefer/reef club.Xenia that has been shipped to
LFS is no where near as hardy as it is when you get it from an established tank.
