EVERYONE in this hobbies changes directions from time to time with what they think they want and MANY people try things that they "knew better" but decidied to try anyways.....
She was asking for help and suggestion not a stoning....
I don't personally know them, but I did see the setup pictures they created and they have invested a lot of time and money in their setup so I don't think they are cutting corners, and can respect them fully for putting a fish on hold while they decide. More people probably should do that as well.
Cudos for asking the question, and please don't be discourage from asking more.
I personally have struggled with adding fish once I started going as well....AND I have also added fish that were suppose to be good natured so to speak but they have turned out the exact opposite (and Vise versa) so the norm isn't always what happens.
As far as your angel is concerned it sounds like you have already convinced yourslef not to get it and I would probably stick with your gut, you can always change your mind down the road....

+1 Well said TJ.
I think some of you are missing the point of her thread. She was originally asking what reasons she could give her husband as why not to bring this fish home.
1. Regal angels will eat corals, probably the nicer corals and not the ugly ones.
2. They are known to be a difficult angel to keep long term.
3. Taking a chance that whatever happened to your other angels might happen to this one.
Other then that I'm not sure. Pretty sure she is aware of those reasons, the idea (I think) was to see if other people could come up with other reasons
that make sense so she could share other peoples thoughts and opinions with her husband.
