Stocking suggestions?

I have a 65 gallon currently-FOWLR (I'll be getting some coral and possibly a clam once I upgrade my lights, but that's probably a few months off), and I've been stocking at what feels like a moderate pace - I've currently got a Royal Gramma, a firefish, and three blue-green Chromises. Eventually (probably the last fishy addition to the tank) I want a pair of clowns, but it feels like there could be a few more additions before then... so I'm looking for suggestions.

I'm still a relative newbie at this saltwater tank thing, so I'm probably looking for beginner or intermediate-level care fish, but of course impressive coloration and/or interesting behavior is always nice. ;) So... am I right that my tank should be able to support more? Or is it time to get those clowns I've been holding off on? (The other day my wife asked "So... will there ever be more fish in that tank?" which I read as "it's not interesting enough for the space it takes up" ;) )

I've thought about something in the bottom-dwelling category; maybe a yellow watchman goby or something - but I'm hoping that someone comes up with that perfect addition that's been eluding me!
 
Look at some wrasses, very impressive colors. Some people may say a bigger tank for wrasses but I've successfully kept them in a 65.

I almost picked up a six line wrasse, but the read a bunch of horror stories about them turning super aggressive. What kind do you like?
