Currently running a 57g cube with a tiny copperband butterfly, a tailspot blenny, a lightning maroon clown, a leopard wrasse and a yellow watchman goby.

My nitrates and phosphates have been undetectable by my test kits for a while now and I'd like to add another fish or two...

Does anyone see any issues with adding:
(2) Firefish
or
(1) long nosed hawkfish
or
(1) 6 line wrasse and another small goby?
 
The sixline would likely be nasty towards the leopard, if not every other fish in there. I know YWG get fairly large but hawkfish prey on small gobies/blennies. I have zero experience with firefish but I believe they're pretty docile. I'm not sure how the YWG would react to them

I'm thinking of flame hawkfish. I'm not familiar with long nose hawkfish
 
I have a long nose!! It will be a great addition. Should not bother inverts or 1 or 3 firefish if you have enough spots for them to hide
 
Yeah i was concerned about the wrasses fighting....I think the firefish would be the safest bet. I've never kept a hawkfish and I wasn't sure if they all preyed on gobies/blennies.
