OK here is my deal. I have a 20 long which has been up for over a yeat and I would like to add a few new fish. I currently have in my tank.
Purple Dottyback
African Flameback Angel
Snails and hermits (4 snails 5 hermits)
and some LR (1 piece, hope for more soon)
I would like suggestions on some fish. I was thinking a royal gramma and a six line wrass. Anyother suggestions?

This probably isn't what you want to hear but you might not have much luck putting anything new in. I'm in the same boat as you. I have a 20 high and have a purple dottyback and a tomato clown in there. Like you, the fish i have in mine are fairly aggressive and wouldn't take kindly to a new tankmate. Since you really can't add anything more aggressive than them to a tank that size, you're pretty much out of luck. You could possibly add something to your tank if its bigger than your other two fish.

you may have some luck if you do get new live rock and create a different looking environment than the one that they are used to. also make sure you get a fish that is not shy or smaller than your current fish and will stick up for himself. just be sure that if you decide to change the environment around not to let your fish establish new territories before adding your new one. as far as the type of fish, i would suggest a damsel of some kind with your size tank and situation. good luck

bino is right, i have done that with my triggers and it worked great(they are dumb lol) you could probably put a four spotted wrasse in that beast. in my 20h i have a small convict tang, star polyps, button polyps cleaner shrimp and like 6 huge turbo snails. it is doing great and thriving.
