On average, what would you say are the easiest and most difficult fish to keep?

I know this is a somewhat broad question, but on average, which group of fish do you find the easiest to get thriving? Which group on average do you find the most difficult?

Group as in family of fish (Tangs, Clowns, Wrasses, Angels, Butterflies etc.)

In my opinion in no particular order and with exceptions of course...

Easy: Damsels, Hawkfishes, Clowns, Blennies, Gobies (most), Cardinals

In-between: Tangs (Only due to aggression), Anthias, Angels, Wrasses (exclude leopards)

Difficult: Butterflies, Leopard Wrasses
