There's usually room for small fishes, like blennies & gobies & fairy wrasses, etc...depending on if your water parameters are in check. What are you wanting to add?
 
Don't know what i want to add now is unusual fish so just keeping a look out at the fish store to see if they get anything unique in i kind of want a pipe fish but i need to get a pod population going on
 
TBH I would only do one Tang in anything smaller than a 120. You could add a number of other, smaller fish. Any shapes, behaviors, niches you are looking for? Pipe Fish as you already know aren’t the easiest to feed.
 
Kinda depends on the species of tangs you currently have in there. As @Zionas stated, I am not sure I would even put two of the smaller species (yellow, kole, etc.) in a 90.
 
If you want another laterally compressed fish maybe a smaller butterfly might fit you. Hopefully the angel takes it well.

You could add more wrasses. Basslets, pair of Clowns, some not too feisty damsels, Cardinals, would all be options. A Borbonius (try to get captive bred) or Sunburst Anthias. Marine Betta (try to get captive bred). Dartfish. Keep one of the Tangs.

My centerpiece of choice for a 90gal would be one the fish mentioned or a pair, maybe harem of dwarf angels.
 
If you test your nitrates and phosphates often and keep them in range you can stock the tank with more fish, your GFO will help for phospates.
