Anthias / Hawkfish compatibility

I'm finding conflicting information on whether Anthias and Hawkfish are compatible in a tank together.
Saltwaterfish.com specifically states in its description of both fish that they shouldn't be kept together. Yet in ***********.com's compatibility list they say they are compatible.
Any insights?

To a point it would depend on the specific species you would want to mix. Some anthias are aggressive and others are mild and passive which would get picked on.

yes, they and most places are just general that way. you would need to do more search on particular species of these fish, and i'm sure somewhere on the net you can find someone that already did some experimenting... so i'd do a search.
