Flame and coral beauty?
Can I keep these two fish in the same tank? I have a 180g 6' tank.
Thanks

I think I comes down to the luck of the draw. I was nervous when introducing the flame in with the coral beauty. I wanted a potter's pretty badly but I wasn't willing to risk the tearing the tank apart to catch a fish out. I have seen 4 different pigmy angels in one tank before.

Angles are hit and miss. I had a flame, beauty and emperor with no prob. all added at different times. The emperor was last. It pretty much keep ed all the fish in check until it got to big had to re home.

I added my Potters first, then added the flame later on. The potters wasn't very nice to the flame at first. I didn't think he was going to make it, but the Potters eventually eased up. Flame got battered but survived.
Now they swim together, sometimes chase each other also... but overall friendly.

I added my golden then mulitcolor then flames. I think flames should always go last because is is kind of aggresive. You get more chance if you introduce them at same time and your tank is large enough to house 3
