I have an issue with my phosphates and nitrates being low, and need to raise them to get better coloration on my sps. I wanted to add some fish and wanted recommendations with my current stock. Also, what is the maximum amount of fish I can have? I will be moving the fish soon to a Red Sea 350 soon.

six lined wrasse
regal damsel (yellow tail, black body)

I use to have 2 clowns in addition, but they jumped out and I didn't have a net.
 
IMO 4 would be the max
 
Your current fish will really inhibit any additions. They both can be pretty nasty to small, peaceful fish.

Depending on species, a 20g can handle different numbers of fish, depending on their behavior and needs. Say for example you got rid of your current fish, you could do a combination of barnacle blennies, pike blennies and trimma and eviota gobies and have has many as 30 fish.
 
Yup, wait until that 6 line fully matures. If you want more fish you will probably have to remove them.
