I know I can't put all of these in a 24 gallon JBJ tank but I want to know if any can't go in the 24 gallon. Thank you

Oh and also if any are especially good and why.

After I get out the ones that can't go in, it will be a matter of price and what ones I really like.

you can't put a dragonnet in there due to the lack of beeding space for copepods they will eventually starve to death because thats all they eat.
Also Lawnmower will prob eat all the algae and then begin to starve. I wouldn't put either of these in there

That sounds about right, those maroon clowns and damsels can be extremely territorial. My dad has a maroon and it doesnt have any problem nipping at him when he cleans the tank. Its kinda funny actually.

yeah, stay away from dragonets unless you really really want to design a tank around them and their eating habits. Also really... jawfish dont NEED a dsb. They adapt well as long as you have a sb in general that ... well isnt tiny. A lot of times they actually take to rock work more than sand too. At least thats what I've seen in my experience.
