Coral Beauty in a reef tank
 
I am thinking about adding a coral beauty to my reef tank. I have mainly sps with a fews zoas. What do you think

1. Have one and love her
2. Had one was a nightmare
3. Would take a chance on one
4. No way not in my tank

Most aggressive fish I've ever had

Have had the same one in my reef for about six years now. Hardy fish and I haven't seen it picking at corals.

One of the loveliest fish I have ever had. Never touched my zoas or lps. I really loved it!

I have one in my reef tank and never bullies or goes after any coral. She is truly a beauty, no regrets at all. :biggrin:

I've had one before and sold it because it was nipping at a clam I had. I don't have any clams in my tank now so I bought another one and I'm glad I did, it started eating pellet food in a couple of days and no picking at corals.. as of yet. Next time I want a flame though.

i have 2 in a 120 for a while now and they are great with lps/a few sps and softies... might even try a clam soon.

I added one about a month ago. She played strange for about a week always hiding, then decided she ruled the tank for a week and was nipping at some of the other fish. But she has since settled down and gets along with her tank mates. I have not seen any evidence that she is interested in any of my corals either. I'm super happy with my decision to add a coral beauty.
