Hello I'm trying to think of some fish for my tank I recently had 3 fish die(2-3 weeks ago). Now I only have three fish left in my tank a yellow tail damsel, cherub angelfish, and a melanurus wrasse. I was wondering if someone could give me some suggestions on some fish that would do well in my tank and have a lot of color. I like different wrasse, gobies, and anthias, but I will take any other suggestions as well.
 
I had two lyretail anthias and a sixline wrasse that I had for almost 8-9 years and I went on vacation for a week came back four days and left again for another trip but my cousin was suppose to come down and feed them and I don't think the anthias got enough food and the sixline looked like it got attacked or something because all of my levels are fine salts fine nitrates at 0 and po4 is at like .25.
 
Possible additions would include flasher and small fairy wrasses, a small group of randalls or dispar anthias, a group of zebra or scissortail dartfish, midas blenny, algae blenny, purple tilefish, watchman goby.
 
What kind or flasher and fairy wrasses would you recommend?
It's really what catches your eye. My favorite flaher is attenuatus, but mckosker and flavianalis are more budget friendly.

For fairies, the pintail is among my favorite, but rubriventralis, rhomboidalis, lunatus would work.
