if you are going to keep clams i suggest not to get it. just my 2 cents good luck

Yea, with any angelfish if you are going to keep corals/have a reef you just have to watch and make sure it doesn't start to nip at them. Its a shame to come home and seea $20 fish had a $500 lunch while you were at work

Just stick with the swallowtail, it won't bother anything. FYI they're a bit tricky to get to eat when you first get them.

Thank you! Any tips/advice on that??

They will need to be one of your last fish after your tank has had time to mature and you are good at keeping up with your water quality. Garlic is one of the keys to getting finiky eater to eat. It also helps them to see the other fish go after the food. Cross that road when you get there. Go very slow.

I think I'm scratching the angel off the list in favor of a dwarf angel, a foxface, and a copperband butterfly. (at most)

My LFS had a dragon wrasse and they had a few hermits in the tank for snacks I guess. That thing annihilates like any hermits or inverts. It was digging through the rubble on the bottom with its snout, and when it got the hermit it threw it around the tank a few times and then just got it out and ate it. I also hear they get quite bit...quite big being like around 1' long and fat too. You could try it but if it gets too big you might need to take it out.
