Default Centerpiece fish

I have a 72 gallon bowfront tank that I will be setting up in about a month. I will have about 85 lbs of tonga rock. I will have a variety of differnt corals ranging form zoos all teh way up to anemone's and clams. The fish that I will have are a pair of goldstripped maroon clowns and a coral beauty.
Now
I whant a pretty show fish that isn't shy and will do well with my inhabitants.
Fish I was thinking of
polluni grouper-probaly get to big
regal tang-probably to big
powder blue tang
powder brown tang
sargassum trigger
harliqin tusk wrasse (australia)
reglal angel-hard to keep alive
bellus angel
trio of anthias
Scotts fairy wrasse
lionfish-worry about eating my fish
What are some others? I really whant a fish that people would say wow
I could always get rid of some fish if they get to large.

A Pink Square anthias is very pretty and dont hide.. OR a Sweetlips.. Very pretty and quirky but graceful when they swim =)

if you really wanna go with something id say a dogface puffer or any type of puffer they are seriously interactive, they will come to the front of the tank and follow you around when you walk by. i used to have one that would nudge up against me when i was cleaning the tank. tell me how everything ends up!

well when i had my dogface i didnt have coral so i really dont know from what im told they will occasionally nip but sometimes u just get a good fish who will never nip or bite its really just a trial and error, but a dogface would be incredible in your tank there so cute!

GOOD LUCK!!!!!!
