Help Picking Fish

Ok well i decided to go with one of the Anthias. But I am still looking for that one main show fish for my tank. I dont want anything that can be potentially not reef safe. I dont want any kind or angel. I was looking at the CBB and it is one of those fish that are also considered hit or miss. So what does everyone think about what that show fish can be. For those who dont know its a 65g.

The Valentini Puffer is quite small and stays small so it won't be a problem.
