Starting a 40 breeder. Want a flame angel but not sure what else to get. It will not have corals on any type. Just full of live rock. Any suggestions would be appreciated, I'll do all the research and find fish I like.

I'd get a coral beauty instead as they are hardier imo at least the ones at my work are, but I'm with you as far as appearance goes. If you put 40+ pounds of LR and break line of sight you could get away with the smaller species of dwarf Lions, Most clowns other than maroons, and maybe a six line. There are a bit of options but comparability is varied.
A group of cardinal fish might work. They might harass each other unit their is only a pair. If you like them give it a try. They are also very easy to breed because they are mouth brooders. A pair of clowns is pretty standard, people like goby/shrimp pairs. Go to a LFS and look around and see what you like. Write the name down and share it here and do a little research. That's how I buy my fish. There is nothing like seeing the fish in person.
I'll try the group of cardinals and see how it goes. If it becomes a problem I can always bring them back
