a six line or other similar wrasse could work but depending on the clowns and the blenny many non aggresive small fish would be a risk

Yeah I used to have a sixline in my tank. If he is last being added he might be good. Mine was not bad at all. Also I'm a be fan of the Midas blenny to. Great color and personallity.

It would be hard to maintain a mandarin in that small a tank unless you can get it eating frozen foods or pellets.
