Default 2 angels

I have a flame and coral beauty in a 90 gallon tank. At first they would stay at either side of the tank. When one fish goes to the others territory, they would chase each other back to thier side. They both stressed each other out, both fish got itch. So I had to quarantine them in a 10 gallon. Eventually they had to learn to get along. When all the itch was cleared, I returned them in my display, and the two never had problems since. Some fish get along and some just dont. Hope the pair u find get along, Thats all you can really hope for.

I have a golden angel for 4 months and then I put multicolor angel for 2 month and then recently a flame angel on the same 155 gallon tank. The golden angel is a shy fish and did not do anything to muilti color one, but she chases the flame angel whenever she sees it. My flame angel lost a little bit of tail but is overall ok (I hope). When I feed only the flame and multi color come.

I have read couple ppl articles who successful keeping different kind of dwarf angels in the same tank by introducing the least aggressive one first and then more and more aggressive one later. I think the flame angel is a very aggressive one so I don't think it will do well with coral beauty unless you can introduce them at the same time. But try it and who knows, there is always exception in this hobby :-) Good luck

I had 3 together in a 33 gallon for 3 years, then transferred them to my larger setup where they lived together for another 2 years. They would squabble, but there was never any pieces of tail missing ever.
If you're looking for other beautiful colors in a fish, there are a tonne of wrasses that are reef safe, unlike dwarf angels. Just make sure you have a top though in case they jump.
