I think I may be in trouble!

My son comes home from his mothers (my ex) with a surprise for me. He talked his mother into going to the LFS and comes home with 2 Anthias. I think they are a Blue eye and a Lyretail. The one is orange with what looks like a blue tear streak running down his face. The other is whitepink outlined in bright pink. He has what looks like a bright pink false eye on his fins. How big do they get? I have a 55 gal w a flame angel and 2 small false percs. I'm pretty sure this makes the tank over crowded, I need to try and make the best of this. Any help or suggestions is appreciated.
Thanks
Ed

I don't think your overcrowded... if your filtration is adequate (wet/dry or fuge). You'd probably be at the limit with those two anthias. They don't get extremely large and are good to have in groups.

Thank for the reply JCRIM
They're beautiful fish and I like them. I was really concerned about their size. They even ate some Mysis already, if I can get my Flame to stop chasing them I'll be set!
Oh yeah, I have 90# of LR and a wetdry filter
