Unlikely Reef Fish Candidates

What are some of the unlikely reef candidates you guys have seen work in reef set-ups?

I have kept a snowflake eel in a "reef" that started out the size of a pencil in a 12g tank and ended up as a 2+ footer in a 75g almost reef (never got fully setup before we moved and gave away). I lost an occasional shrimp but had good success as long as I remembered to feed him :)

I have seen some large angels in reefs, as well as triggers, etc.

So what are some other unlikely candidates for a reef?

By the way this will most likely be a 72x30x25 (apprx 230g) or a 96x30x25 (apprx 300g)
 
Heniochus butterfly (careful not to choose the non reef safe version!)

niger trigger, blue throat trigger, crosshatch trigger, lionfish, scorpionfish, fusilers in a large reef
