Hello to all I am new to this forum, but not to the hobby.

#1 on that list for me would be the lionfish. It beauty, elegance, and a look that says "Stay Back". Its an awesome fish.

#2 would be the porcupine puffer. They have a lot of personality, however, they are prone to ick.

Hope this helps :D

The puffer and grouper probably get too large for that tank. The blue tang would definatly enjoy much more swimming room. Depending on what type of lionfish you put in there would be tough to put anything else in there with it. The wolf eel will probably get pretty territorial in that size tank. The yellow tang would probably be nice.

I would only get one tang and make sure you havwe alot of live rock. Something I found out with my FOWLR is to have a good current it gives fish excersise and helps with slime algaes and stuff.
