Angel questions

Murminator · #1 12-12-2007, 08:12 PM

I have been think about adding an angel to my reef and I have never had one. I would like a potters but will settle for a coral beauty or flame angel. I always read about the good fish I never hear about the bad ones. I would like to hear about the good and bad ones to get a kinda percentage of good to bad to help in my decision.
It will be in a fairly stocked 90 with 2 clams lots of LPS, softies and a few SPS. Yellow tang, 3 clowns, royal gramma, blue sided fairy wrasse, and 2 huge cross damsels (bigger than the YT)

My Potter's has so far been a very good reef-safe angel.

My Coral Beauty nipped now & then, so only semi-safe.

Reptile Guy's Flame has taken a loving to brain, acan, & blasto type corals.

My coral beauty has been reef safe so far.

I can't comment on the angels but I would consider keeping just 2 clowns not 3 and remove the damsels from your list.

I have a Flame and an Emperor in my reef.

The flame is fine but the emperor eats zoos and clams.

For some reason it really likes maxima clams and crocea clams. It leaves my big Deresa totally alone.

If I could catch the damsels I would they only hate each everything else they are fine with, so I thought they woulda killed each other by now. As for the clown they been together for over 2 years they are all fully grown and happy together
