Anthias I would not recommend, they are better for reef tanks. Dwaft Angels are ok, cardinals, blennies, gobies, clowns, damsels, all these fishes are all ok for 2 feet tank. But for damsels, try not to get it, as they are quite aggressive and may be a difficult task for you to add fishes in future.

Squirrel fish is very hardy too... I find the cardinals abit fusy with the water parameters... especially with the nitrates and nitrites and NH3... but not my squirrel.

ya i agree that cardinal are pretty fussy with food too i think

Perhaps before you even start the planning of the tank, you may want to ask yourself what attracted you into this hobby in the first place. Then look at the requirement to own it / them, and decide on the size of the tank. If your list of "loved ones" is very long, you can priortise them and decide which one suits your taste and pocket.
