Looking for ideas for my 75 Gallon Tank. Just around 100 pounds of live rock. No coral will be a FOWLR.

Currently have:
- Sailfin Tang
- Niger Trigger
- Blue Spotted Puffer
- Occellaris Clownfish

They are all pretty small going to upgrade to a 200 gallon in a year or two.

Looking on adding 1-2 more want something active since the clown hides in the corner and trigger likes chilling in the rock.

Fish I like small angels and butterflyfish. Seen some cool wrasse but my brother has one and he hides all the time.

Open to anything that will be active and won't be an issue with the current 4 fish.

Butterflies need mature water, advisable 6+ mnths. Pick ones alredy eating at the lfs make huge difference in success rate. Freshwater bath is also highly recommended. The established tang may pick on bf, so i would pick a bigger size bf.
Some easy bfs are bannerfish and pyramids since they are planktivores.
Moderate are longnose, klein, auriga, vagabond, dot dash, latticed, pearlscale, pakistan(maybe difficult), blackback, saddleback, double saddle, falcula, semilarvatus, copperband(maybe difficult) etc
Moderate/easy but pricey are mitratus, declivis, burgessi etc said to come from deeper waters
Avoid the obligate corallivores, unless you can feed them corals...but they are the most stunningly beautiful
