I can't comment on the angels but I would consider keeping just 2 clowns not 3 and remove the damsels from your list.

I have a Flame and an Emperor in my reef.

The flame is fine but the emperor eats zoos and clams.

For some reason it really likes maxima clams and crocea clams. It leaves my big Deresa totally alone.

If I could catch the damsels I would they only hate each everything else they are fine with, so I thought they woulda killed each other by now. As for the clown they been together for over 2 years they are all fully grown and happy together

i've had a flame angel for about 3 years now and the only thing he liked was an open brain and really really liked it. ate it in 2 days. everything else he is fine with.

I've had lots of flames over the years and never had a problem with any of them nipping at anything at all and this new one was fine for months not touching nothing until one day it decided man these corals taste great lets try to eat them all lol( mostly just the expensive ones by the way lol ). Just goes to show you how no two are alike and now having to catch him in a 210 filled with rock and coral on a tall stand is gonna be a nightmare. I'm never adding an angel to a lps tank again cause seems only a matter of time before they start to sample a few things unless it's in a tank where they can be easily caught cause my flame isn't remotely worth the $700 dollars in corals he was picking on (luckily except for my nice acan nothing has been overly harmed)

Angels and clams are usually not a good combination. If it starts nipping the clam, you will usually have to remove the clam because you can't catch the angel.

My Flame Angel was totally fine with all corals but would occasionally chase the smaller of my clowns.
