Yes, WELCOME!

Anyway I bet alot of what happened (as some have hinted at) was or may have been caused by stress. In the future I would say add one fish at a time to your quarintine tank and then when you feel confident add that fish to the main tank.

If the fish you are adding are not of the same species/body shape there shouldn't be too much to worry about. Of course you alway risk something not getting along with something else. Just don't add a yellow tang to an allready established scopas tang in your tank.
