Any kind of trigger would be way too big for a tank your size, and they are very aggressive. Your tank is also too small for a hippo tang. Plus, hippo tangs are extremely sickly fish and tend to be very difficult to keep alive. Definitely not a good fish for a new tank. A puffer would also need a larger tank.

Since you have inverts, it looks like you are trying to go for a reef tank, not a predator tank. So you need to find a reef safe fish that you like.

How about red or purple firefish?

Look at gobys, blennies, firefish, sixline wrasse...

I would also get a bunch more cerith snails and blue leg hermits and pick up a dozen nassarius snails to stir up the sand bed. If you have a sand bed.
