Large Angel in an SPS tank

I am sure many have fantasied about the co-existence of these two, but does anyone currently have one in their SPS tank. What kind of Angle? How is it doing? Is it eating/nipping on corals? Would you recommend it or not.

No Angles here. But I do have an Angel. Its a Flame Angel. It doesn't touch my SPS unless it was already dying. Then it'll nip the dead tissue.

I have a Regal Angel in my sps tank. Now I don't have a lot of sps corals and it hasn't been up and running for that long but the angel's been in there for about a month now and the only thing he eats are my snails and the fish food I feed him.

I have a coral beauty and a flame angel with no problems.

Awesome. Thanks Jaws.

No problem. I was a little concerned for a while because he had a good cut on his side for a while and he wasn't eating as much for a couple days but it's almost healed now and he is eating great again. Definitely a great addition to a tank if the fish has the right intentions. By that I mean "doesn't want to eat your pocket book up in corals".
