I currently have a Kole Tang and a Sixline Wrasse in my 40b frag tank. Unfortunately I can't seem to keep PO4 or NO3 high enough, even with feeding.

Im thinking of getting 1-2 more fish, something that is really hardy and will like to eat to help feed the corals. Are a pair of clowns a good choice?
 
Yes clowns are pretty hardy, just a question, why do you want nitrates and phosphates in your system? you could always add a canister filter they are nitrate factories :)
 
maybe marine pure
I love clowns they live through everything. My oldest fish is a clown.

My NO3 and PO4 go undetectable with zero water changes unless I continue to dose Red Sea Reef Energy every day. I can’t feed enough without some more fish to help poop it out!
