I just salted ten water ina 40b that will become a frag grow out tank in my office. I'm looking for advice on budget friendly utility fish.

Right now no got in my head a clown and springer damsel for pest control. Maybe an algae blenny of the need arises. Otherwise what's the suggestions?

I'd prefer less likely to jump over more likely and less aggressive to other fish (so likely no 6 line wrasse).

The invert plan is bumblebee, astrea, and maybe nerite snails.
 
I always save room for those fishes that don't play well in the DT, and sometimes they jump and it saves me a trip to the LFS. I like the Springeri damsel idea.

Thanks. That could work for the hawkfish. But the biggest danger in the display is the powder brown tang. He's 5ish inches so gonna be a nightmare in a 40. Also if there's one fish I want in the display it's him. the joke and foxface are probably too big too.
