Yeah, you can keep anything. Absolutely not interested in the MH/T5 debate but that's a debate about aesthetics, not PAR. T5s have enough PAR to keep anything alive, so you should be fine (assuming...

The one under-reported thing with blue-spotteds is that they technically like slightly cooler water. So what happens is, they survive fine for a while, even acclimate, but their metabolisms get sped...

I've seen separate species of centropyge (angels) actually pair up. My buddy Mike has a coral beauty and an Eibli pair in his 65 gal. I've never heard of inter-Family luvin' though. That's cool.
