Okay, I have a 90g open top reef tank.
Current fish: (snails only for CUC, no shrimp of other inverts)
A pair of Ocellaris clownfish
sixline wrasse
royal gramma

I feel like a 90g is a tank where you do not really have that many options of reef safe fish. To small for tangs/anthias and each time I find a fish I like they will either jump out or dont get along with my current fish.

Question: What would you add to this mix to max out my bio load to acceptable levels?
 
I would stop everything you're doing and get a canopy or screen top on that tank NOW! Look closely at that sixline and I'm sure you'll see him looking for a sweet piece of rug to jump on. :bounce:
 
Open top aquariums look amazing but if you value your fish a top of some kind is a must. Take the top off for pictures to get the rimless feel.

I would fill a 90 gal to the brim with Anthias :)
