Anthias in a 65? Stocking Suggestions

yeah when I saw they could go in a 40 gallon, i went and researched them online and it seemed online they're almost always $150+

i think if i lose a fish i'd replace it with a pintail. i just hope my orchid dottyback isn't a dick to it
 
They are schoolers and 60 gal is sort of small for the active swimming area they require. They will be crammed and unhappy and eventually squabble. They squabble in my tank as it is and I have 7 of them in a 360g
