Your current fish are a good combo. I wouldn't put a 6-line Wrasse is a tank that size. They are one of the fish that can be VILE in smaller tanks. A Mandarin probably won't get enough food in a tank that size unless you train it to eat frozen food in a quarantine tank before introducing it. If your Damsel is still fairly small then the Firefish and the Hawkfish would probably do just fine. They stick to the rocks like the Damsel (and Yellow Prawn Goby), so their territories would overlap, but the Damsel should get over it as long as it's not so big that it will kick everyone's butt.
