Help a newbie stock her tank!!!

A snowflake will pr with your current clown. Just ensure you get a male or juvenile.

Anthias species can be mixed together, however there are different degrees of aggression, so species of similar aggression will work. Pink square anthias are a species that can be kept singly, but I would recommend getting it from LFS to ensure that it is eating. Female lyretails would go well with a male pink square.

Anthias do not need copepods added to the tank, as they eat from the water column and not the substrate. Unless you have a dedicated pod eater, such as a dragonet, it's unnecessary to supplement pods unless you want to.

Pink square and lyretails can be trained to eat pellets and flakes.
 
+1 to the goby vote. I have a yellow watchman paired with a pistol shrimp and they're really cool.

Make sure you're ready for the anemone when/if you get one. They're a little tricky and if they die they can lead to a tank crash if you don't catch it quickly.
