Need help determining my future options?

Equipment
  • 55 gal tank
  • 70 lbs of live rock
  • 70 lbs of live sand
  • 2 maxi jet 1200 power heads
  • 1 super skimmer 65 gal model
  • fluvial 305 canister filter
  • Coralife 2 x 65 w compact flourescent linear light strip

Aquatic Life
  • 3.5 inch coral beauty angel
  • 3 inch percula clown
  • 4 inch scopas tang
  • good size hermit crab
  • mated pair coral bonded shrimp
  • 1 mexican giant snail
  • 5 or 6 regular snails, the black shell ones
  • 1 small emerald crab
  • 1 peppermint shrimp
  • 1 pencil urchin
  • 1 bahama starfish
  • some bristle worms of course

I am happy with this load but I would like to some feather dusters and maybe 1 more fish.
Thoughts on my bio load?
Any future ideas.
 
whatch out for the tang police they'll be terrorizing you in a little bit. Tangs need more room than a 55 so i have been told.
 
Yea that is what I have been told. I asked my LFS and they said the scopas tang does not quite need as much room as other tangs, like the hippo, and if I keep my fish count down he/she would be happy.

Which is why I am only planning on maybe 1 more fish. I rather have a happy ecosystem then overpopulated display
 
funny that all my fish often gather together in one little corner as if they're watching TV, I swear I could put a hundred more fish :)

You could start with smaller ones and then trade them back to the LFS when they're cramped. Just an option.
