Fish recommendations?

Thinking about increasing the number and diversity of fish in my 160 (rimless). Right now, have a good, peaceful mix (other than the chromis - have the same issue as dz6t) but does seem a bit sparse sometimes.
Current fish list

Hippo tang - about 5"
Yellow wrasse
Foxface - about 5"
4 chromis
2 clowns true perc. tank reared
2 barred gobies
1 pajama cardinal - about 1.5"
 
What kind of corals or any clams in the tank? I love angels but they're risky for the corals.
I would get a harlem of anthias. 5-6 in group is nice.
 
I was gonna recommend anthias also. Be aware that they should be fed multiple times per day though.

How about a royal gramma?

I recently bought an Orchid Dottyback, I love it! Nice addition, kind of chills in its cave zips around to feed and then just heads on back to the cave. Carries some little rocks around in its mouth too, weird!
 
If u don't mind replacing your cuc every once in a while. I love wrasses! Favorite of mine is green choris wrasse

How about a blenny? We have a midas and a starry. Great fish. Lots of personality and interesting looking.
 
Can you have more than one type of wrasse? Maybe a dumb question but I've never really seen a good answer to it.
 
I have a melanus and green choris in my 75 get along just fine

melanurus wrasse is a must have for reef aquarium IMO.
