I have a 30 gallon aio tank and currently for fish I have a pair of clowns, rocket tail damselfish, fire fish, Bangai cardinal, and a yellow watchman. For now I’m going to hold off on adding anything for a while but eventually I’m hoping to add one MAYBE 2 more fish. Would I be okay in adding 1 or 2 more or is it safe to call it on adding fish.

I would say you're stocked. Depends a lot on how much rocks and hiding places you have. Unless each fish can have its own safe place, you're at limit.

personally I would say 6 fish in a 30 gallon is very fully stocked. Especially with 2 clowns and a damsel in there, I doubt any new fish would be allowed into the tank.

I would look for an algae eating fish, they help keep things clean and will be active all the time. There are many different colored blennys that eat algae.
