I dont think that would be a problem. But I would wait for other opinions.
However I can say with more confidence that the Flame, or any Angel for that matter, will probably raise hell with your Six Line Wrasse. Angel's love to "take over" the rockwork, and "claim" just about every nook N cranny. The Angel might decide to run the Wrasse out and take over, causing big-time stress on the Wrasse...eventually killing it. Just a thought. This was my experience with the 2. But yours could ofcourse be different.

i believe the larger types of angels will eat the feather dusters. but the pygmies rarely do. i have had a few feather dusters and my coral beauty never touched them. she also has a very shy demeanor and doesnt bully anyone. but other CBs may act very different, and larger angels are a whole other story

I have a flame angel and dusters in one of my tanks and a pygmy angel and dusters in my other tank, and neither one of the angels bothers the dusters.

I've had both flame angels and coral beauty angels in systems with feather dusters....no problems that I've seen.
