I have a 180g DT with a 39g sump. My two main fish are a Desjardi Sailfin Tang and a Magnificent Rabbitfish. My other fish include two small clowns, anthias, and Goby Firefish. I'm not ready to add any fish yet. I've decided to focus on the corals for a bit. I would like suggestions for beginner to intermediate fish to add in the future.

Thank you
 
Yellow tang hardy and add splash of yellow, not sure if it would get along with your sailfin. Blonde Naso Tang, Cardinals, wrasses are really cool active colorful fish as well.
 
Would a Blue Throat Triggers or other trigger fish be safe with the above fish, including some shrimp and snails?
 
In general fish and snails should be fine with a blue throat. Shrimp are more risky as these triggers are planktivores in the wild.

If the shrimp is an established cleaner already there is a good chance it will be left unharmed but newly added shrimp has a better chance of being seen as prey. A big variable will be the disposition of the specific trigger. Some are easy going while others are somewhat ill tempered.
