I have a 75 gallon, soft corals, venturing into LPS, albeit with mixed success…

Currently tank is lightly stocked with mostly small fish:

2 clowns (oscellaris, pair)
2 zebra barred dartfish (mated pair)
1 mandarin dragonet (female)
1 neon goby
1 court jester goby
4 mollies

Looking for suggestions for hopefully peaceful fish.

Current thoughts (options, not a list of everything I plan to add):
1. Flame Angel
2. Add ~2 more court jester gobies
3. Some sort of sand based goby (I assume the sand goby won’t get into disputes with the neon)
4. Firefish - would this play nice with the dartfish?
5. Dottyback? I see mixed reviews on their agressiveness
6. 3 Anthias - also have seen mixed reviews on agression
 
Your stocking list looks alright. I wouldn't worry about the Anthias unless you introduce a male with only 2 females. The Firefish and dart fish should get along with each other, and I would recommend some sexy dancing shrimp for your corals or anemones if you get one.
