I would leave it at that personally. Some of those fish you have get large over time as well as active.
 
Tank space is such a premium. I did not think of any of my fish are "filler fish". I added a fish into my tank because either I like it, or to achieve something or both.
IMO, you have a fully stock tank. For "filler fish" you may want to add more anthias or more chromis. A harem of Dwarf angels would be stunning, but I cannot imagine anybody who keep a harem of angels (that is me:)) would consider 3 Flame or Flameback angels as filler fish.
 
Ditch the chromis. Nothing but trouble imo

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!
