I have had a bi-color angel in my 55. Was a model citizen. I now have a 125 with a Queen juvi and a pygmy angel in there.
Trouble though is every fish is different. One may pick at corals and a different fish of the same species will bother everything. It really is hit and miss.
Just make sure that you offer them some nori sheets everyday. Barry

It is definately hit or miss, though the Coral Beauty in my experience is the best bet. It all depends on the fish and if you are willing to break down your tank in order to catch the angel if it starts to nip at corals.

Yeah, it really depends on the fish you should introduce them with caution, i wouldn't try them if you have really expensive coral. If you do get one, feed it well, make sure it eats enough so that it will be less inclined to nipp at your corals.

I currently have a coral beauty in my tank he leaves all my corals alone but he wont stop picking at my feather duster. every time it opens he swims up to it and nips it so it closes again.

What are your thoughts on the Lemonpeel angelfish ? I was thinking of adding that to my wish list. I hear they're the least likely to nip corals. Is that true ?
