I agree. I'll happily use myself as an example. Anthias suck. They can be temperamental feeders, get bullied by other fish, require huge amounts of food and filtration, and their rediculous social structures have had me pulling my hair out on more than one occassion. I've lost plenty in my day, and completely agree that they should be where they are on the list, as a group. My post earlier in this thread was to state the fact that if we are going outside of the "group as a whole" description, then tuka should be at the top of the anthias-to-avoid list, not bimacs or squarespots.
