Question Valentini Puffer tank mates?

I have a 30 gallon reef tank with a 10 gallon sump it is fully stocked with coral and inverts but only has 1 fish a valentini puffer. My tank was going to be FOWLR system but I thought I'd try adding a frag and see what happened and my puffer didn't touch it so it turned reef tank he's never touched any of my corals, snails or shrimp. I was originally just going to add a pair of clowns but I kinda want something more unique and interesting any ideas? I think I'm going to add 2-3 more fish do think thats pushing it?

I have a blue spotted toby and it does great with corals and inverts... Except feather dusters. My puffer gets along with the other fish as well. Very friendly and mellow.

Valentini puffers are pretty gentle. Any fish that doesn't get to big or very aggressive would be fine. Hundreds of choices.
Of course, my puffer eats SPS. Has a thing for milleporas.
