Default reef stock

I was looking for people's advice on where to go with adding new stock to my reef tank. I presently have the following fish:
flame angel
bicolor angle
coral beauty
orchid dottyback
2 cinnamon clowns

I was wanting to look at a schooling fish, but not the anthias's. I have heard the chromis can be cool, but can also pick at the lowest on the totem pole in their own group. I have heard the bangai cardinals can be kept with one male and numerous females. I was also wanting to keep 3-4 yellowhead jawfish and a randal goby for my pistol shrimp. Also, I was looking at getting a couple of false percula clowns. Has anyone had a luck with numerous false percula clowns?

Any suggestions?

What size tank is it, I'm guessing it's not a nano.

How many chromi's do you have Drew?
No, my cinnamon clowns are mated. Actually, they won't even go on the same side of the tank. One is hosted in my frogspawn, the other one hosted in my hammer. When I first introduced them at the same time, the larger one picked on the smaller one until it went to the other side of the tank.
I have a questions about jawfish. Has anyone ever had a problem with them eating cleaner or peppermint shrimp?
