What fish should I get next?

I've got a 60 gallon tank that's pretty established and I would like a new fish. Here is my livestock right now:

Yellowed eyed tang
False percula clown
Diamond Goby

Inverts and Corals:

A bunch of turbo snails
Hermits
Flame-torch coral
Xenia


I've got a small patch of macro hair algae starting to bloom next to my soft coral, and I'm afraid it is starting to take over the one piece of live-rock it's nestled on. My yellow-eyed tang does attempt to suck on the hair algae, but it isn't able to rip it from its root. Are there any reef-safe fish that will handle hair algae? I hear a lawnmower blenny will do the job?


Here's a recent picture...notice the green hair algae starting to take root:

well, an algea blennie will be able to care of that, but it may starve to death after it's all gone. I would try pulling it out yourself by hand instead.

Fo some colour in your tank, you can add a royal gramma, or a bicolour dottyback. or a school of reef chromis.
 
I agree with the Green Chromis. I had a school of 5 in my 55 gallon. They are really peaceful and great to look at. They also swim in the water column adding more movement to the tank. And their cheap too.
