No clue about the butterflies, but what about a pair of flasher wrasse?
Our blenny swims some but dosn't swim like I think you're looking for.

I think 2 bartletts and a redlip blenny would be cool. Both stay very small. Redlips only get about 3 inches max. LMB's get about 8" long (or can) even though they say they only get 5. I've seen with my own eyes LMB's about 8". Plus, they can be aggressive.

Very Nice tank fedukeford, Im with you all the way with the PC's, I have a 75g very similiar to yours and Im running PC's and everythings blowin up.
how bout a Firefish? Hawkfish are sweet , I know you want a swimmer though....
Id go against the butterfly in a 55, specially with a dwarf in there already.
Dragon wrasse?
LMB's - 8 inches are scary looking, not a fan at all.

firefish are jumpers and i have no cover, hawkfish eat shrimp and i have a cleaner and fire shrimp, ill take a look at some red lip blennys though, and im pretty sure dragon wrasse arent reef safe

right side

do you have a fuge right behind the tank? if you do is it right behind the tank because i noticed that you have a pipe connected to your power head.

i would suggest getting 2 150 watts in stead of 1 400 watt bulb. you need one bulb per two feet of tank so you need two bulbs. if you get that you will on ly have strong light in only a section of your tank.

I would say in a 55 gallon.. I would only put like one more fish.. or 2 very small fish.. and you'll be totally maxed out
