Another fish recommendation thread (sigh)

just a nano

I'm sorry to add another of these threads, but I'm looking for help in adding "the last fish" to a reef tank. If needs to be reef safe, swim out in the open and get along with what I already have. Here are the current inhabitants:
Coral Beauty (so no other angels)
Yellow Tang (so no other tangs)
Percula Clown
six line wrasse
neon dottyback (so no other slim bodied fish)
green chromis
Are there any other options for that last open swimming fish?

hawkfish (pixy, flame, falco or long nose) are probably one of the few fish that you dont have that are bold enough to be added to what you already have. look into the halichoeres family of wrasses as well. they can hold their own and are coral safe (larger ones may or may not eat shrimp). a tailspot blenny would get murdered with a sixline, neon psuedo and possibly dwarf angel depending on its temperament. I wouldn't cross my fingers with the bicolor either added at this point (would probably be fine if it were there before some of the inhibitants).
