Established Saltwater Tank?

I have a 80 galloon saltwater tank and its been running for 2-3 years. I have mainly damsels (4) with a cinnimon clown, and a blackcap basslet. I had a flame angel, a lawnmower blenny, a coral banded shrimp, a pink tip haitian anenome, and a puffer. All of those have either been given away or died… the puffer ate the shrimp. A lot of the clean up crew has died and I need to replenish their ranks. I want to get rid of the damsels…well 3 of them and get some more interesting fish. Does anyone want some damsels? (1) 3 stripe, (1) 4 stripe, and (1) lemon damsel? If not they might get flushed if I can’t get my girlfriend to convert her freshwater tank to saltwater and take care of them. What are some lively interesting fish I could get? I’m hoping for some that won’t disturb the hermits and snails. Also, I want to get another coral banded shrimp since the puffer that ate the last one is gone. Any ideas would be cool, thanks.
