What fish should I get?

I have a 55 with two clowns, two peppermint shrimp, a cleaner shrimp, 6 blue legged crabs and 6 snails. I want to add a purple dottyback and a bigger low maintenance fish. I was thinking maybe I shouldn't get the purple dottyback and just get a bigger fish because of water quality. I only feed flakes, brine shrimp, and a sometimes frozen veggies (formula 1??). I change 10% of the water once a month. I don't want to do more water changes or change what I'm feeding them. For example, I like yellow tangs but I don't want to feed them the greens they need and I don't have live rock. So the question is what is a bigger fish I could put in my tank.
Thanks for you help.

Unfortunately--right off the top of my head... the large fish that don't eat alot of greens eat alot of clownfish, shrimp, crabs and snails.
But if you quit with the flakes and fed the frozen veggies daily, I think you could support a smaller tang. (one of the hardier ones of course) Like he said find a good species guide. something will get your attention--but you have limited yourself quite a bit.
Good Luck
