I'm not familiar with that particular damsel but my advice would be to add it last once you are finished stocking the tank. Damsels are territorial towards any newly introduced fish and con-specifics once they have established themselves.

I have had an Azure damsel for years now and he only causes me trouble if I add a new fish. Depending on what the fish is, it either settles down or I have to remove the new fish due to stress.
