Have you looked at the deep-water angels in the Genicanthus sp.? They are more reef safe and less aggressive than some of the others. Maybe not as eye-catching as say a Regal or Majestic but some of them are quite nice. I particularly like the Bellus Angels. I have a Lamarck's in my reef and it has never touched a coral.

hehehe, Genicanthus, eh

I have a pair of lamarck (both female for now, heopfully one will turn into a male) in my current tank. They both are nipping at my brain coral and my green birdsnest. So there are no true reef safe angelfish.
Yeah, I like bellus too. I plan to have a pair in my new tank. If I can find a couple healty ones to begin with. LFS had some from time to time. Not healthy at all. Some had decompression issues. Some were very thin.
