Damsel

Lawnmower - Orange Spotted

Black & White Percula x2

Frogfish - White
 
Personally i dont agree with liveaquaria on pretty much all of their "minimum tank sizes"...they got a few right, but stuff like tangs/triggers are way off IMO.

I'd take the trigger out soon...they just get way too big for a small 55. All the others should be fine, although i'm not sure about the frogfish...it should be fine though since they stay still for most of the time i believe...just not sure how they'd do with the other fish.

And i'm also not so sure how big the puffer gets...check into that because i know lots of them get a bit big..
 
hi one of the funnys things i aver herd was, semi-aggressive. the frog can eat any thing 3/4 his size! the puffer well eat all the corrles. the tregger is mine and only gets worst with age.
 
I only had 4 fish in my old 55g. The most I would as is the 2 clowns. That triggers gonna get big and your tank will have to take on his large bio-load. So I would only go with 4-5 fish.
