yeah you can put another fish in there even two. but take it really slow with fish cuz they are the ones the add the most bio-load to tank. you want to give your tank some time to adjust to the new bio-load.
look into small fish like.. dottybacks, sixline wrass, bicolor blenny, and such..

you should be fine if it's cured, you can double check by giving it a good smell and if it stinks is usually not cured.(it will give you a good idea but it won't guarantee they're cured) also it will be ideal if you have an extra powerhead that you can put the liverock in a salt bucket for afew days and check the parameters in the bucket..watch for high levels of ammonia when adding live rock..
