 Cam, IME, all of the dwarf angels need at least a 3' tank, and a 4' tank is even better. These fish are fabulous swimmers and need lots of open space as well as lots of tunnels throughout the rockwork. Also, if this was my 20g, I'd probably only have two or three small fish in it to keep the bioload low enough for such a small tank.

Cam,
Even a 45g is going to be too small over the long term for a robust dwarf angel, IME.

Get a life...
Hey all,
Give Cam a break. The guy was looking for something to buy, not advise. If he asked, "is my tank too small for a flame angel?" answer him. If he asked, "is a chocolate chip seastar reef safe?" answer him. Everyone is an expert, and yet we all experience events in the hobby that defy common opinion. Think about Mr.Alberta and his powder blue tang. He found out that it was not a good idea for him and passed the advise along. Now, does this mean that we all stop attempting to add powder blue's to our tanks? No, we get informed and then we try. If Cam has found success in keeping a Flame Angel in a 20 Gal, cool. My point, let's not be "Post Addicts." Respond when asked a question. Don't whore your responses just so you can feel needed in this little community of ours. Take care everyone

Question here: If someone is housing a fish in a inappropriate tank, Is it not our duty to inform that person of the possible problems of doing that?
Mabey that person had no idea that this perticular fish needed a larger tank and would be happy to know otherwise.
