Anthias hmmm. They are beautiful for sure. I think I will need something like a grid or mesh to keep them in the tank no? Or is it wrasses?

I loved my diamond goby! Great fish for keeping the sand clean.

Schooling fish they are plain Jane but it is so cool to watch them all turn on command in the same direction. Also blennies they have personalities those guys do.

Anthias can jump, my boyfriend had 3 now has 2 cause one jumped. Still doesn't cover the tank though, just a risk he takes. He has had the 2 for a few months now (the other one jumped a few days after adding it) so hopefully they'll stay put. Beautiful fish to watch, he also only feeds once a day so it's not always necessary to feed more often.

Anthias are fairly sensitive to water quality and they are not cheap, so perhaps not the best first fish
