I have an asfur angel and it looks like asfur angels could fit your needs:
1. Doesn't seem to grow any more after 4.5" .. so it's basically like a midget large angel. In fact, mine keeps to around 50% of the tank most of the time (not a pacer).
2. Cost wise they are falling down, so it's definately not a "small fortune". You might get one for around 100 bucks.
3. Being from the red sea, they have the reputation of being less likely to be caught with unethical practices, so it's likely to be hardier.
4. Mine has shown no interest in zoas, mushrooms, leathers, GSP, feather dusters, xenia for about a year now, but clams I have not tried (nor plan to).
In fact, I've never seen a captive asfur angel larger than 5" in person, not probably not even in pictures or videos.
