Hi guys I’m looking for a few good tank mates that don’t hide and actually stay out more often ... I got a 55 gallon reef tank ... I’m looking for fishes that are not aggressive also ... this are the fishes I have on my tank for now
2 fire fish
1 clown
1 yellow watchmen goby
1 lawnmower goby
1 spotted mandarin dragonet
2 shrimps (fire) and (cleaner)
 
I nice wrasse would be a great addition to the tank! I also have a 55 gallon and will be adding one this weekend! Would love to see pictures of your tank.

I had a fairy wrasse it went nuts and killed 4 of my fishes ‍♂️... soo I’m trying to get over that first , so I can add another wrasse ... I’ll take a pic when I’m home and I’ll send it ... my tank is new only 7 months

I’m sorry about that
 
I think an Angel might be too aggressive, and some of the Royal Grammas I have had have been hiders too.

What about a Cardinal? I have a Banggai now, and have previously had a PJ. Both had good personality without aggression or 'hiding'.
 
Flasher wrasse. Less aggressive than the fairy wrasses, stays small, out all the time and most of them have beautiful coloration.

Pink streaked wrasses are interesting, non-agressive. Can be a little cryptic I've read, though mine is out all of the time.
 
I just added a striped blenny and 6 line wrasse to my 4 yesterday they are both pretty cool
 
Do add Pod's? or have Refug? Reason take alook at Black Cap, it will feed on pod's as well. So I wouldn't want you to possible add something that could challange your Mandrains food source. Another one I am waiting on are the Assessor's. Really cool fish in swimming style,
 
A cherub angel would be nice in that tank.

I add pods and I’m starting my refug soon
 
explore the blackcap... pretty and different fish, I forgot another is flamehawk...

good luck on your choice..
 
For real, the cherub angels are adorable and will eat algae growing on your rocks. It may nip at your corals looking for algae but from what iv seen they dont go after the coral themselves
