Default Flame Angel

Hey all. I have looked at fish charts and all but want some real world advice. I am wanting to get a Flame Angel and a Coral Beauty for my 55gal reef tank. I have in there now a yellow tail damsel, a 4 stripe damsel, a one spot fox face and lawn mower blenie. I have a feather duster, xenia, and a leather and will be adding more corals as time goes. Let me know what you all think.

They will be fine as long as you add them at the same time. Dont let one establish a territory let them establish both territorys at the same time. The only thing is that your tank is getting close to a terminal bio load. maybe just pick your favorite of the 2 for the health of all your fish.

You have a selection of Damsels that would cause the bravest person to quiver. That is the first problem, the angels will not do well with those Damsels, at all, ever.

In addition, both of those angels are very questionable reef safe, most are not and it is only the rare individual that is safe.

Lastly, Angel fish rarely get along with one another. Putting this assortment of fish in your tank is just cruel at best. If you had really large tank it might work, but you are close to overstocked as it is. Think about the health and happiness of your creatures.
