I have a 50gal AIO (so like 41 in display) and currently have pair of clowns, purple fire fish, Midas blenny, and 2 pajama cardinals.

Is there any other fish I could get that will be active kind of like the clowns? The Midas and fire fish just chill hiding all day and the pajamas just do their float in place type thing lol.

I would love a wrasse but I have not had luck with them in the past (lost 2 randomly)
 
A fairy or flasher wrasse would be good. They sometimes don't ship very well, so that could be why you lost two, but I would consider trying it again. Otherwise, a dwarf angel is a great choice if you don't mind the possibility that some of your corals could be nipped at. Coral beauty are the least likely to do this. Cherub or flameback angels would also be a good choice. A royal gramma can be pretty active too, but not as much as wrasse/angelfish.
