- I would say to the triggers - the will eat corals.
- A snowflake eel is fine with corals - but would make short work of
any cleanup crew you out in with it - their main diet is crustaceans.
- Dwarf lions would be OK aswell - they will eat all shrimps and small fish
in the tank. And depending on which species you get, may hid most of
the time - due to the bright lights required for corals.

Also as already mentioned all of these are waste factories - so excellent filtration will be a must. The eels and lions are dusk and dawn creatures that hid during the daylight hours, so they wont be out much under reef lighting setups.

Other than that, they can and have been put in reef setups, just need to plan accordingly. Personally I have my dwarfs in a 55gallon FOWLR setup and have 15watts on lights so the tank is always on the dim side, they are out most of the time.
