First tank

Ive been searching this board for about six months now and i have gotten tons of great information. I set up my first tank a month ago and add the first fish two days ago. Its a 55 gallon tank which was given to me so i was stuck with that size. when i first got interested in this hobby i was lured to all the triggers and the dog faced puffer, only to have my dreams shattered by learning they would be almost impossible to keep. so i added 5 chromis just to make sure i know what im doing and get a little pratctice in. they are doing great so far and my levels are all good (knock on wood). I definately want to add a couple more fish to the tank but i was having a hard time coming up with fish that would be good for a 55 gal fish only tank. any suggestions would be real helpful, thanks in advance.

Possibly a dwarf angel like a flame or a coral beauty. Look at the gobies as well. You could do something like a sixline wrasse. It really depends what you want your tank to look like.

I second the sixline wrasse.
Great coloration, and never stops moving. Very interesting fish.
I would also look into the royal gramma, beautiful fish.

there are a lot of really neat wrass' that dont get great big,many can be kept together but if you get a 6 line only 1 wrass for you. I like gobys many different varieties and most get along well,I have 2 and a pistol shrimp. If you are going FO flame hawks are really cool but can get mean so add him last.
