How big is the lionfish? IMO you may be at your limit, because he's going to get even bigger.

in a 72, you will have problems with the fish you have.. im not sure about tht lion but some ae known to get the size of a basketball and 2 yellow tangs will get big for that tank..
imo, i wouldnt add anything els, i would take a tang and a lion out, and add a small fish or 2.
just my 2 cents

If you got rid of the lion and maybe the tang (if this would be an option for you) you could definitely have room to play with. You could maybe get a pygmy angel, a royal gramma, a fairy wrasse, or a hawk fish.
Btw...How much coral do you have? Let's see a pic or two and maybe we can help you with selection.

if i had a 72 i would get an eel (if you already have a lionfish). but like they said you might have problems or be at your limit already.
an eel would love those clownfish i bet. if you know what i mean.
