Default what fish to choose?

I used to have a yellow tang but we got rid of it...to much of a mess she made and my firefish took a 4foot jump out of my tank, through the egg crate, down the back of the tank and parished in a ball of dust bunnies and cat hair. Poor fishy, fourth jump ended up the last one. 4 lives freckles had, we named her freckles. So now I only have a yellow jawfish, yellow watchman goby, 2 clowns. What is reef safe, compatable with these fish and all my livestock? I really love bicolour blennies but would it be aggressive towards the jawfish and watchman? No damsels or large fish.

thanks

There are a number of reef safe Wrasses that would suit your tank and are not really jumpers! Flasher and Fairy Wrasses are ideal!
A Blenny would be fine...one of my favorites is the red-lipped blenny!
How about a Pajama or Bangaii Cardinalfish?
How about a few Green or Blue Chromis'?
How about a Royal Gramma?
Sorry to hear about your Firefish, and too bad you got rid of your Yellow Tang!
