yeah all those fish at once in your list would probably crash the natural balance of your tank...Slow down or else xpensive things will die... What kind of light do you have? there are still alot of other things you can put in there ther than fish to watch...There are tons of inverts to choose from that are just as much fun to watch as the fish and dont hurt the balance of your tank...Coral is fun to watch too if you have the right lights for it...What kinda light do you have?

I wouldn't add any more fish unless you take some out. I also have a 33 gallon and at most kept four fish in it, now two. I would get rid of the damsels and one of the clowns as Clarki don't do well in groups. Then wait a while and add a fish. How old is your tank? Angelfish do much better in an established tank like over a year old and then maybe a coral beauty, flame or pygmy. Bicolors get too large.

sounds like you need more live rock, And in my opinion that amount of fish is too much for a tank that size.

I would also say to get rid of the damsels and a clarkii. Then wait a while and get an angel and that is all. I would also suggest getting more LR before you get an angel as they like to graze all day long.

Get rid of one of your Clarkii clowns, One will end up being beat up mercilessly and die.
Other than that - you're already overstocked as it is. No more additions !! I'd reduce your total fish number down to 3 or 4 fish in a 33 gallon tank.
Anemones need very good lighting. What kind of lighting do you have ?

As everyone else has said, I would get rid of both damsels, and a clown and just add the one angel. That is all I would add as far as fish go though.
