blue jaw trigger. Pink tail trigger. Red tail trigger. Wrasse of some sort
 
What size tank and it all depends on what you interpretation of a predator is....

Scorpionfish and betta come to mind. An angler really does better in a species tank. There are other fish that fit well with predators that some don't really consider predators. Tangs if the tank size is appropriate. No matter what you hear i really don't consider triggers and angels reef safe, but if you are up for the gambe, those work well also.
