Looking for tank mates

Trigger and lion not good, triggers will nip at lions fins, some of the fish u have listed could be potential lunch for lion. Triggers are a crap shoot at the best of times. Both Lion and trigger will most likely wipe out any shrimp, snails or hermits u may have.
Ur flame angel will have established territory ((whole tank, lmao) and he will most likely be a little bastard to any new-comers. Tangs are ok provided ur tank isnt crammed with rock and they have room to swim, they like lots of space and they are added at same time. Ur Damsel may be a bit of a bully too, not to mention ur clowns.
Adding that many fish, you will most likeley have a higher level od success if u rearrange all ur rock work and put everyone back into tank at same time (after highly recommended 6 to 8 week quarrantine of new arrivals) because nobody has any territory to defend any more. They will still bicker back and forth for the prime realestate, but everyone should settle down and play nice.
My two bits FWIW

Copper and is a nice addition I would think. I would have one but they are reputed nippers. Seeing as u don't mind occasional grazing but u can probably kiss ur Zoas goodbye. Foxface rabbit fish are nice too. If ur system was bigger I would certainly suggest Emperor Angel but 130 too small. Meanarius Wrasse an great addition too. Always active

I have a fuzzy dwarf lion and 2 blood red fire shrimp, coral banded shrimp, snails, crabs ect.. and have no issues. In fact the lion fish always goes to them for a cleaning (shrimp), they hop on and he just sits there.

Of course u know the hefty price tag that comes with an Achilles. Beaut specimine and definate show piece fish. Y not go for blonde naso(lipstick) instead. I think they're just as attractive fish as adults
