Thank you, powder blue was doing well until I added powder brown. I was I’ll advised and should of added blue last. Lesson learned. Mine was fine and I messed up his digs- too bad beautiful fish

Triggers are one of my favorite fish, and I don't see one in your inventory. Sure, some can be jerks (undulated, clowns, etc), but there are lots of friendly varieties you could consider.

Aside from that, there are a ton of fish in the world. Anything you're looking for in particular? Color(s), shapes, personality traits, etc to help narrow in?

You have quite a bit of fish and some with growth potential yet. If you feel inclined to add more (I know- the addiction), first pick a group and then consider temperament of a potential addition.
Ive noticed Pyramid butterflies on a comeback in the market as well as copperband butterflies that are actually eating

I currently have a blue jaw and a niger, both in with shrimp. I've never, not once in 20+ years in the hobby had a blue jaw eat a shrimp. Not to say some won't, but I've never had it happen.

I've also had several pink tails in with shrimp problem-free...

Personally I think you're missing some fairy wrasses. Go with slightly more aggressive species like the cebu pylei fairy (Cirrhilabrus briangreenei) and the pink headed fairy (Cirrhilabrus chaliasi). A larger group of smaller damsels like azure (Chrysiptera hemicyanea), green spot (Neopomacentrus azysron), gold belly (Pomacentrus auriventris) or even green chromis (Chromis viridis) would also look very nice, while adding relatively little bioload.

Niger triggers are also an excellent choice. This is my new guy coming on Saturday morning from NY Aquatic.
